Help available for those who stutter

To the editor:

International Stuttering Awareness Day is Sunday, and it's a great time to remind readers that there are speech-language pathologists in your area who specialize in helping people who stutter.

The not-for-profit Stuttering Foundation can provide a list of local resources. Just call (800) 992-9392. Or visit www.stutteringhelp.org. Click on "Referrals" for a listing of therapists in your state. In addition, our materials are found in 7,917 libraries nationwide.

We also provide the latest research information, a worldwide resource list and self-help materials compiled by the leading authorities in the field.

Thank you for helping us reach those who stutter in your community.
