July 2025 Power Hour: Serving Students with Disabilities and the Rise of Autism

July 23, 2025

Understanding students' experiences is an important part of building the support they need. This Education Power Hour looks at how Arizona schools serve students with disabilities and what education data can tell us about their outcomes.

Karla Phillips-Krivickas of Champions for Kids and Rachel Anderson of the Southwest Autism Research & Resource Center discuss national trends and rising autism diagnoses. The conversation gives educators and community partners context for thinking about student needs and stronger school supports.
