We Did It: Capital Campaign Goal Met!
Thanks to your generosity and partnership, the A to Z and Everywhere in Between capital campaign has officially exceeded its goal, raising $13,263,000 to expand autism services across Arizona. Now, we look ahead to our next chapter: the opening of our Tucson campus at the end of 2026, representing SARRC’s first expansion outside of Maricopa County.
You can still join us in bringing life-changing autism services, research, and supportive communities to thousands of individuals and families across the state. Make a gift today »
Expanding Access, Transforming Lives
By 2030, SARRC will become a statewide organization that puts essential autism services within reach of every Arizonan. The A to Z and Everywhere in Between campaign is a key step in achieving that vision.
Your gift will extend our vital programs and services, research, and outreach to five new communities across the state:
- West Valley
- East Valley
- Tucson
- Flagstaff/Prescott
- North Phoenix/North Scottsdale
With expanded access to life-changing services, earlier diagnoses, and more supportive communities, you will provide a brighter future for over 4,500 people each year.
About 1 in 31 children has autism in the U.S. In Arizona, the rate is 1 in 32, according to the CDC.
When Everyone Thrives, Our Communities Flourish
Hope and possibility for people with autism means a brighter future for all. Because when every person has the support they need to live with independence and joy, our entire community benefits:
We boost prosperity for every Arizonan, with more community members contributing to our economy and creating job opportunities.
We build a stronger, more united Arizona where every person feels accepted and connected.
Today, 1 in 31 Arizonans have autism - nearly twice as many as in 2014. The need for that support has never been greater.
Your Gift Changes Lives
Funds raised through the A to Z and Everywhere in Between campaign support our vision of becoming a statewide organization — putting essential autism services within reach of every Arizonan through:
- More than 20 evidence-based programs that support individuals with autism from childhood through adulthood, helping build meaningful skills and promote independence
- Research that deepens our understanding of autism and helps discover better ways to support and treat it
