Founded in the summer of 2023, the National Stuttering Association’s (NSA) Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion (DEI) Committee is dedicated to fostering an inclusive, equitable environment for all people who stutter and advancing outreach and advocacy initiatives with the NSA. While stuttering unites us as a community, we recognize that intersectional identities, structural inequities, historical underrepresentation, and individual lived experiences shape how each person who stutters navigates life.
Gabriela Perez is passionate about her identity as a person who stutters and is proud of her involvement in the NSA as the DEI Committee Leader. She currently works as a paralegal with the American Civil Liberties Union and will be starting at Harvard Law School in the fall. In her free time, she enjoys pilates, embroidery, and spending time with her family (two sets of twins) and pets.
