Listen "Stutter-affirming approaches and positive stuttering identity - S05E36"
Episode Synopsis
In this week’s episode, we speak with Dr. Christopher Constantino from Florida State University in the United States. He discusses 3 stutter-affirming priorities for people who stutter and those who support them, recognising what is gained from stuttering, and developing a positive stuttering identity.
Speech Pathology Australia acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of lands, seas and waters throughout Australia, and pay respect to Elders past, present and future.
We recognise that the health and social and emotional wellbeing of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples are grounded in continued connection to culture, country, language and community and acknowledge that sovereignty was never ceded.
