Raising Brilliance

Autism Resources in Phoenix, Arizona

Phoenix is the center of gravity for autism services in Arizona — home to the Southwest Autism Research & Resource Center (SARRC), Phoenix Children's developmental pediatrics, the state's densest concentration of ABA and therapy providers, autism-specific schools, and nationally watched programs like First Place AZ. Combined with Arizona's no-waitlist DDD/ALTCS system, Valley families have more options than families in most American metros. This guide walks through what's available: diagnosis, therapy, schools, community and sensory-friendly activities, and how Arizona's funding programs work.
