Speech therapy program

Wed., Aug. 2, 2017

I thought your article “EWU program helps stutterers thrive” (July 23) was amazing! It conveyed that speech therapy can greatly help a person who stutters at age. Kudos to the speech-language therapy department at Eastern Washington University.

May I mention to your readers that there is a great resource on stuttering for the Spanish-speaking community at www.tartamudez.org, which is a Spanish-language version of the website of the nonprofit Stuttering Foundation (www.stutteringhelp.org) which gives out a ton of free resources.
