The Stuttering Foundation provides free online resources, services and support to those who stutter and their families, as well as support for research into the causes of stuttering. We are the largest - and the first - nonprofit charitable organization in the world working towards the prevention and improved treatment of stuttering, reaching over a million people annually. We also offer extensive educational programs on stuttering for professionals.

Where to Go to Chat with Others

• Stutter
  A place for stutterers to talk and express themselves and maybe share some wisdom and insight. All types of expression are all
  
• Stuttering Chat
  This is a support group for people who stutter, but friends, relatives, and speech therapists are welcome too. We are the biggest and most active forum for people who stutter and have members from all over the world.Our primary mission is to provide support to people who stutter in the form of information about stuttering, therapy/treatment, and the sharing of our experiences.
• Women Living With Stuttering
  This International Community will provide support for women living with stuttering. Females who stutter deal with a unique set of issues often overlooked or not addressed by the stuttering community because stuttering affects a much larger percentage of men than women. Through this group female's voices will be heard about what their specific needs are and what the stuttering community can do to best support them. This group has been created to provide a safe and secure atmosphere where female's can communicate about core life decisions and issues about home, work, family and relationships by sharing and seeking advice from other women.
