How 'Progress Meters' Can Help Improve Arizona In Key Areas

Last week, The Show told you about improvements to education in Arizona, like more people getting four-year degrees in the state.

The same group behind that data has now released data for seven more categories — including jobs, health and infrastructure.

Sybil Francis, president and CEO of the Center for the Future of Arizona, spoke with The Show about those new "progress meters," as she calls them, and what that knowledge can do for the state.

Lauren Gilger, host of KJZZ's The Show, is an award-winning journalist whose work has impacted communities large and small, exposing injustices and giving a voice to the voiceless and marginalized.
