About Us

Empowering adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities to live independently and meaningfully.

Building a healthy community for all.

A Different World Services was founded in July 2012 by Jean Jeudi and Keats Alexander, two friends with a shared passion for helping individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Driven by their vision to create a safe and nurturing environment, they established a group home where individuals could thrive with personalized support, independence, and dignity. Today, we proudly uphold our mission of 'Building People, Building Family' by providing exceptional programs and an inclusive community for all.
