Using Cognitive Approaches with People Who Stutter: The 2018 Mid-Atlantic Workshop
"I feel like I have been looking at stuttering with the wrong pair of glasses, and my true 'favorite' moment was realizing this! I now see everything in a new light. I've enjoyed every lecture, and look forward to going through my notes and sharing the information learned with colleagues back home. I've also enjoyed the opportunity to meet such an awesome group of people from all over the world."
"I love how
everyone contributes to the group’s learning."
The Mid-Atlantic Workshop was a tremendous success this year, held at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia. Participants came from Argentina, Chile, Poland, New Zealand, Canada, Nigeria, and throughout the US. Vivian Sisskin and Joe Donaher were joined by Michael Boyle who presented his work on improving public attitudes towards stuttering with advocacy and education. The participants also heard from Sam, the young man who recently was ridiculed at a Starbucks because he stuttered. Overall it was a great week with much sharing, learning and laughing!
