Sonoran Center for Excellence in Disabilities

Since 2006, the Sonoran Center for Excellence in Disabilities, located within the Department of Family and Community Medicine at the University of Arizona, has been working in partnership with the community to expand possibilities and enhance independence for people living with disabilities as they navigate life's transitions. The goal of the Sonoran Center is to ensure full community participation by individuals with developmental and other disabilities through interdisciplinary training of students and service professionals on disabilities, research, technical assistance and information sharing, and exemplary services and model program development to enhance and expand the systems of support for people with disabilities.
