WHAT WE DO

Share what we know.

Support Group

WE HELP BUILD SUPPORT GROUPS & NETWORKS

Our vision is to connect all support group leaders (SGLs) regardless of affiliation.  We aim to share ideas, encouragement and best practices for stuttering support groups.  

WSN is a place to learn how to create, build & enhance your own stuttering support group or network.  We will help establish support group systems in countries where none exist. 

HOW DO WE HELP?

At World Stuttering Network (WSN), we are dedicated to stepping up our efforts in providing MORE than just a website.  Through use of interactive Facebook groups, virtual meetings, speed friending and a wealth of written resources from experienced support group leaders, we will provide you with ongoing, individualized support to meet your needs.   We are always striving to make a difference! We invite you to learn more and lend your knowledge.
