About

The Stuttering Foundation is a nonprofit charitable organization established in 1947 by Malcolm Fraser in Memphis, Tennessee, United States. The organization is dedicated to helping people who stutter, supporting their families, and improving public understanding of stuttering. It promotes the prevention and effective treatment of stuttering through education, professional training, research support, and accessible information. The Foundation provides educational resources to children, teenagers, and adults who stutter, as well as to parents, teachers, and healthcare professionals. These resources include books, brochures, videos, online materials, and practical guidance designed to help people understand stuttering and navigate the challenges it may present in everyday life. Another important aspect of the Foundation's work is professional education and training. It provides learning opportunities and specialized resources for speech-language pathologists and other professionals who support people who stutter. Through these initiatives, the organization promotes evidence-informed approaches to assessment, therapy, and communication support. The Stuttering Foundation also works to raise awareness and challenge misconceptions about stuttering. Through public education campaigns, media outreach, and international information-sharing initiatives, it encourages greater understanding, patience, and acceptance of people who stutter. Its educational materials are available online, reaching audiences in many countries and languages. Through its commitment to education, research support, professional development, and public awareness, the Stuttering Foundation seeks to improve the lives of people who stutter. Its long-standing mission is to ensure that individuals and families have access to reliable information, appropriate support, and greater opportunities to communicate confidently.
