Walk With Me is a 1.25-mile family and dog friendly walk that benefits Southwest Human Development’s Easter Seals disabilities services for Arizona’s young children and their families. Young children served by Southwest Human Development include those with autism, developmental delays, physical disabilities and other special needs. You can learn more about these programs at www.swhd.org!
The walk is held on April 26th. We need volunteers to help with event set-up on April 25th as well other volunteer duties on the day of the walk. Volunteers on the day of the walk will help with passing out water bottles, assisting in activities with children, cheering on runners/walkers around the route, distributing t-shirts and goodie bags and other event assistance as needed.

Mission Statement
At Southwest Human Development we strive to give all children an optimal start in life with opportunities for a bright and positive future. Several decades of research clearly demonstrate that each child's earliest experiences and relationships establish the foundation for all future development - intellectual, social, emotional, physical and behavioral. A child who starts life and school with a healthy foundation is at a distinct advantage. We at Southwest Human Development are committed to creating a positive future for all young children.
Description
Founded in 1981 by early childhood educators, Southwest Human Development focuses on young children ages birth to five. Southwest Human Development serves more than 135,000 children and families each year with the goal of helping children establish a healthy foundation by preventing problems before they begin, or when they already exist, intervening as early and effectively as possible. Southwest Human Development is committed to using the latest research and best practices to create and implement its services. Young children and families rely on the organization for help through over 40 different public and private programs and projects in the following areas: child health and development; Head Start; disabilities; early literacy; and training for early childhood professionals. We are the Easter Seals affiliate for Central and Northern Arizona.
