00:00Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez Bezos are awarding five million dollars to David Flink, founder and CEO of the Neurodiversity Alliance, as part of this year's Bezos Courage and Civility Awards.
00:12Flink says the honor reflects decades of student-led efforts to create more inclusive learning environments for neurodivergent students.
00:19The nonprofit, which began as a peer mentorship program, now supports students across more than 600 high schools and colleges nationwide.
00:27The grant aligns with the Bezos' broader interest in education and learning differences, shaped in part by Sanchez Bezos' personal experience with dyslexia.
