I’m fidgeting in my chair.  The room is cold – not just the air – but also the room itself. I wait as the next speaker walks without haste to the front of the room.

All Canadian Stuttering Association members are invited to our AGM and introductory workshop on Saturday March 28 at 1pm in Toronto, Ontario at Metro Hall, King and John Streets.

This video is from 2011, and contains some good information about stuttering, speech therapy, and how to listen to a person who stutters. Jaan Pill is one of the co-founders of the CSA (originally the Canadian Association for People Who Stutter). He is also a co-founder of the Estonian Stuttering Association and of the International Fluency Association. For more information about Jaan, see his website.

The Centre for Cognitive Neuroscience at Wilfrid Laurier University in Waterloo, Ontario is looking for people who stutter to participate in a study that investigates how they process auditory feedback while speaking.
