I’ve been stuttering since I was 2. My mom says that she first noticed it when she got me a pink toy kitchen for Christmas. I was so excited, I couldn’t even speak.
So basically, I’ve been stuttering for pretty much my entire life. I didn’t really ever think very much of it. I wasn’t self conscious about my stutter, it was just part of who I was.
It's no secret that peer support, and opportunities to meet and interact with one another, in both social and educational environments, are beneficial for people who stutter. Worldwide, tens of thousands of people who stutter attend support groups and conferences. What is shown empirically, through research and study, about the nature of these encounters and their advantages?

On the weekend of June 23, I was in Albany, New York, where I attended the College of Saint Rose's 4th annual Stuttering Treatment Program.
According to the Oxford dictionary, the word “Stutter” is defined as: “talk with continued involuntary repetition of sounds, especially initial consonants.” Prior to 2007, if asked to define the above term, I probably would have replied with a similar response. It wasn’t something that I would have ever thought about, I didn’t know someone who stuttered, nor did I stutter myself. It wasn’t something that affected my life or my family’s life so therefore, I was ignorant to its meaning.
On Sunday, June 25 the CSA hosted another virtual Let’s Talk event.
