Governor Hobbs, who has a background in social work, has made it her mission to ensure that every child in Arizona is protected. In a statement released today, she emphasized the importance of safeguarding children and providing them with the necessary support.

One of the key bills signed by Governor Hobbs is SB1126, which aims to address dangerous crimes against children.

It also promotes better communication between DCS caseworkers and schools, allowing for access to vital information that will aid in their duties.
