A World of Difference’s Story

Exploring neurodiversity through compelling conversations with national experts, families, and successful adults who thrive with their learning differences, A World of Difference: Embracing Neurodiversity provides more than just resources and expert guidance for neurodivergent families — it shows them that they are not alone.

Produced by Beacon College — the first accredited baccalaureate institution in the nation for neurodivergent students — the show airs on Central Florida’s PBS station, WUCF TV, and is available nationwide via the free PBS app on most streaming devices, including Roku, Chromecast, and Apple TV+.

Since its launch in 2020, the program has garnered national recognition, including five Telly Awards, three Anthem Award, PR News’ CSR Diversity Award, and more.
