Education

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.
