Education

Understanding the life experiences of students who stutter and their families is an essential part of successful therapy planning. Join Suzie, a mom of two children who stutter, and Hudson, a 15-year old on his own journey of navigating stuttering as they share some of the successes and challenges that they have faced in the therapy room, at school, and at home. These stories will provide practical strategies for SLPs to enhance support for students who stutter and their families. Experiential learning at its best!

In this course, you will hear real life stories from a parent of a teen that stutters. The stories include how much blame a parent can put on themselves until they are more informed about stuttering, and how parents and SLPs can work together to make home, school, and daily life a place where everyone belongs. Successes and failures in the therapy room, academic setting, and in family journeys will bring SLPs new perspectives of how to support students who stutter and their families.
