The Champion’s Corner

Stories, ideas and opportunities shaping inclusive education in Arizona

Our Why

From an Advocate

I can’t begin to tell you how encouraging it is to have a community of like minded professionals working together to support students with disabilities. I am so excited to connect with Champions for Kids and can’t wait to see the impact we can make together!

From a Partner Organization

Our students need us to have a unified voice advocating for them. Champions for Kids brings together these voices so that students with disabilities aren’t forgotten by people who make decisions for them. It is great to see so many different organizations working together!

From an Attorney

I’m so grateful for the opportunity to dig into state law and all of the unique ways the Arizona education system is unique.

From Therese Derivan

I’ve gone through many advocacy trainings but with Champions i’m finally receiving opportunities to put into action.

From Heather Bell

I would attend trainings only to find that Arizona has a unique nuance.

From a Parent

I can’t believe things haven’t gotten better since my child was in school

From a Parent of a Child with a Disability

I wanted to thank you so much for all your advice, information and introductions regarding (my daughter’s) forced graduation. The last few months have been difficult! I don’t know what I would have done without you! You were truly a God-send. I am forever grateful to Champions for Kids!
