We are all born to grow. We are curious, open to change, and seek continuous improvement - driven toward our vision and mission.

We Believe Change is Possible

At DCS we believe that everyone has the capacity to change. People can change, families can change, organizations can change and even systems can change. It is our charge to foster change in the families we serve, within our organization and throughout our community to create a place where Arizona's children thrive.
