Learning from the lived experience of those who stutter is critical to understanding stuttering in a comprehensive, multifaceted manner. By better understanding the experience through the lens of those who stutter, we are better equipped to help support those we work with clinically. In honor of National Stuttering Awareness Week, a panel of adults who stutter from a variety of different backgrounds will share their stories and delve into what helped support their journeys towards positive change.
Panelists: Aidan, Angelica, Christopher, Elaine, and Geneviève will reflect on lessons learned along the way and share insights from their own therapy and support experiences. Panelists will answer questions submitted in advance through registration as well as live viewer questions.
 
Target Audience: Adults who Stutter, Teens who Stutter, Speech-Language Pathologists, Parents of Children who Stutter, Graduate Students
