Moving to Arizona with a Disability
Moving to a new state like Arizona can be exciting, but it can also feel overwhelming, especially if you’re setting things up for someone with a developmental disability. That's why we created the Getting Started Guide, a digital resource to make the move easier for you and your family. You’ll find tips on finding accessible activities, transportation, schools, and healthcare in Arizona, plus information about local support services across the state for older individuals with I/DD.
We want to help you feel at home and confident in your new community. Use this guide to plan your move and feel more secure about figuring out Arizona's disability systems and services.
