We applaud Barbara Dahm’s excellent Nov. 20 article, "Stuttering Is a Misunderstood Problem," and your efforts to shed some light on this complex disorder affecting over 3 million Americans.
However, your readers should also know how to contact a nonprofit source of help, the Stuttering Foundation of America.
We provide information on the latest research on stuttering, a worldwide resource list of speech pathologists who specialize in stuttering, and videotapes and books on stuttering compiled by the leading authorities in the field.
For more information, offered free of charge, your readers may write us at P.O. Box 11749, Memphis, Tenn. 38111-0749, e-mail us at stutter@vantek.net, visit us at www.stuttering help.org or call our toll-free Hotline on Stuttering at 1-800-992-9392.
