Coconino County is here to support our community during the COVID-19 Pandemic. The County has several resources for our community to use during this time.
You can visit our website by clicking here to see all the resources we are providing through Coconino County.
Below are some resources offered through the County as well as our community partners.
Coconino County will reopen the Willard Springs Transfer Station for the summer season for free green waste-only disposal.
The station will not be accepting bulk waste due to cash handling and social distancing recommendations from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Green waste disposal provides an incentive for residents to clean up their properties before wildfire season.
Did you know that Coconino County is going live every day at 2:00 pm on Facebook to keep you informed about what the County is doing during this time?
Make sure to tune in at 2:00 pm each day to get an update from the County about COVID-19. All past updates are archived on the County’s Facebook page.

The Coconino Coalition for Children and Youth (CCC&Y) strives to prevent substance abuse and other negative outcomes in adulthood by understanding the effects of childhood traumatic experience and mobilizing community action. Research shows that Adverse Childhood Experiences, or ACEs, contribute to the likelihood of addiction. Sadly, however, Arizona ranks higher than the national average for children who have experienced ACEs. These can include childhood traumas such as abuse and neglect. In fact, according to the Arizona ACE Consortium, “It is estimated that nearly 70,000 children in Arizona have more than five ACEs.”
