SCOTTSDALE, AZ (AZFamily) — A nonprofit in Scottsdale that helps families experiencing homelessness now needs some help of its own. “A family has to place a call to us and say I have nowhere to go, and so we’re that possibility for them,” said Family Promise of Greater Phoenix CEO Ted Taylor. Taylor has been the CEO for the last 15 years. That was around the time Family Promise moved into a former apartment building built in 1961 in South Scottsdale, now converted into a family shelter campus.

PHOENIX (AZFamily) — Hiking Arizona’s mountains and trails is a favorite activity for many, even during the hot summer months. But it can be dangerous. In Phoenix, the city saw 68 mountain rescues between May and September last year at its four most popular mountain trail systems. “These crews do these mountain rescues all the time, so it’s kind of second nature to them,” said Phoenix Fire Capt. Andrew Lyman. Over 200 miles of trails snake through the city’s desert parks and mountains.

PHOENIX (AZFamily) — The Desert Southwest has the fastest growth rate for Alzheimer’s diagnoses in the country. A package of new rules and minimum standards for memory care facilities across Arizona is up for a big vote on Tuesday. When HB 2764 was signed into law last year, these rules and standards were required to be set. “It was a shattering moment,” recalled Diane Hyink. It was the summer of 2022 when Hyink found out her father, Chris Wunderlich III, had Alzheimer’s.
