CanStutter offers a warm welcome to our new volunteer Board Director, Ridwana Miah in the role of Social Media Coordinator. Ridwana has good experience with and knowledge of Social Media and it's current use. She has concrete ideas and concepts with how she would like to manage Social Media for CanStutter, and to grow it across additional platforms. Her ideas inspired us all. Ridwana, also a person who stutters, has also been an active volunteer with CanStutter for several years and we are happy to welcome her to the Board!
In her own words: Now serving as a Social Media Coordinator, Board Member, and Conference and Events Planning Committee Member, my goal is to make meaningful contributions toward raising awareness and fostering understanding of stuttering. I aim to strengthen our online presence to better serve the initiatives that solidify the CSA’s mission, ensuring every person who stutters feels connected and heard. Volunteering has given me the wonderful opportunity to connect with the community, share my own story, and learn from the diverse experiences of others, and has allowed me to make meaningful connections.
A little more about me: I am a paralegal by profession. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Political Science with a minor in Law from Concordia University and am currently pursuing my Master’s in Public Administration at the University of Saskatchewan. Outside of school and work, I enjoy taking long walks, exploring Montreal’s coffee shops, reading and reviewing books, writing articles, and trying out new activities.
Please join us in welcoming Ridwana Miah to the CanStutter Board of Directors!
