We created this channel in order to bring people who stutter (PWS) together, provide an opportunity to hear others’ stories, and to help PWS feel a little less alone. Open Stutter has also served as a resource for individuals who stutter around the globe to learn more about stuttering and for support groups and SLPs to use in service of PWS. We believe that PWS sharing their stories authentically has the power to positively impact our global stuttering community, the profession of speech pathology, and reduce stigma amongst the general public. This free resource could be used to create community and inspire self-advocacy among viewers.
