Canadian Stuttering Association 2016 Conference
Event Information
Description
The goal of our conference is to help people who stutter to explore attitudes toward speaking and stuttering, gain self-confidence, and hear the latest in stuttering research and treatment. We also provide a social meeting space during the day for everyone to talk and make valuable contacts within the stuttering community, and to simply enjoy the company of other people who share a similar life challenge.
