Get connected with other teens who stutter! The NSA sponsors a Teen Yahoo Group for our teen members.
NSA-Teens is a web based listserve for teen members of the National Stuttering Association. This Yahoo group was created to give young adult stutterers aged 13-20 the ability to maintain long-distance friendships with other youths who are faced with a common difficulty.
The group allows teens to share their frustrations, experiences and triumphs with others similar to themselves. You can write to the list to share experiences or just “lurk” to get ideas for dealing with stuttering in the real world. Listserve participants must be members of the NSA and complete a short application. If you want more information about becoming connected with other teens through the listserve, or to request an application, send an email to Sarah D'Agostino, Family Programs Administrator at sdowgiallo@yahoo.com.
Here is what NSA teen members have said about the listserve:
"NSA -Teens has been a great way for me to connect with many teens who stutter across the country to share related experiences and concerns about school and other situations that people my age, who stutter, can relate to." Elana Y.
"I think the NSA - Teens is a great way tokeep in contact with teens we've met at past conventions and to continue to be supportive of each other and help other teens in any way we can." Sarah W. |
