Many of our members find that regular attendance at NSA meetings is one of their most important learning and growth experiences. To accept ourselves and each other. To have courage and keep trying. To challenge ourselves when growth opportunities present themselves. To be patient with ourselves and be kind to ourselves.
Meetings are a safe place to take risks, try new behaviors, and be open about our stuttering.
If you decide that the experience is worthwhile for you, and you want to join the local chapter, your name and address is sent to the National Stuttering Association main office in Anaheim Hills, California. They will contact you directly, sending a packet that includes additional information on the NSA and a membership application form. You will also be sent information on the NSA publications and the annual NSA conventions, both of which offer a wealth of information on stuttering. It features inspiring and educational workshops, informative speeches and presentations, and a variety of social activities. It is led by Sally Butcher.
