POSTPONED: 2020 Annual CCC&Y Prevention Conference

CCC&Y update: The 2020 Annual CCC&Y Prevention Conference has been postponed due to the ongoing Coronavirus emergency. Our hearts and thoughts are with those who are currently being deeply disrupted during this time. We know this change will be deeply supported by all of our partners and this challenge pales in comparison to what many are going through now. We are working on rescheduling the event to June, or in a few months. More details to come

Updated March 16: The Arizona Department of Education, education advocates, county superintendents of schools and school leaders met Monday afternoon to discuss draft policy legislation to help Arizona schools during this closure in response to Coronavirus (COVID-19).

As of 9 a.m. Monday, Arizona has 18 confirmed COVID-19 cases, said Dr. Cara Christ, director of the Arizona Department of Health Service during a press conference this afternoon.

“We have community spread of COVID-19, and we expect more cases,” said Dr. Christ said.

LabCorp, Sonora Quest and several other private labs can now test for COVID-19 when the test is ordered by a doctor, Dr. Christ said.

“What we’ve seen is that Arizonans have acted responsibly through this,” Gov. Doug Ducey said.
