ESC Speech Pathology Webinar Series
Stutter-affirming therapy for older school-age children and teens: A modern, comprehensive approach




This interactive webinar series has proven to be an excellent source of continuing education for many speech pathologists and other school staff since 2012. In this series, we are once again offering high-quality learning opportunities, so speech pathologists and speech pathology assistants can improve upon their existing skill set. Developed through the thoughtful collaboration of ALL twenty education service centers, we have secured respected presenters to deliver timely and high-level learning topics, all conveniently delivered to your computer/device.  The more informed you are, the better prepared you are to serve your students.  Join us throughout the school year for any one, a few, or all of our SLP webinars.


Important Session Information:


As the field of stuttering therapy changes, many clinicians are left wondering how they can balance messages of stuttering acceptance with skills that help students communicate more easily and more effectively in school and beyond. The purpose of this presentation is to demystify the current terminology and views related to stuttering therapy (stuttering-affirming, neurodiversity, verbal diversity) and discuss ways to help students, caregivers, and educators better understand the true nature of stuttering. This foundation will provide clinicians with concrete guidance about how to select appropriate goals and procedures for comprehensive stuttering therapy in the modern era.
