Questions?
We know that attending your first NSA Chapter meeting might be a little intimidating so we’ve tried to answer some of your questions! We know once you get there, you’ll be greeted by Chapter Leaders who have been in your shoes before and are happy to welcome you!
Depends on the chapter type, adults who stutter make up the majority of our attendees but we also welcome family members, Speech Language Pathologists (SLPs) and anyone with a special interest in stuttering!
Your Chapter Leader may prepare a topic for the meeting or might open the floor for discussion and see where things go. Some chapters may also host social events outside of the traditional chapter meeting. The magic of the NSA is just being among other people who stutter, building connections, and having fun while doing it! NSA Chapters give people who stutter, their families and SLPs, a chance to connect and have fun-filled experiences together!
While you don’t need to RSVP before attending, it’s always a good idea to reach out to the Chapter Leader(s) before the meeting to let them know you’re coming. We love knowing who to look for at a meeting!
What to expect in an NSA Chapter meeting?
We’re excited for you to join us in our NSA Chapter! Here’s a little bit of information on what to expect when you attend.
NSA Chapter meetings are made up of people who stutter (of all ages!), their family and friends, and SLPs. Our Chapter Leaders are either people who stutter, family members of someone who stutters, or Speech Language Pathologists (SLPs).
This is a safe space where you can feel encouraged and supported. You do not need to participate or speak if you are not comfortable. You are welcome no matter where you are on your stuttering journey (as a person who stutters, a family or family member, or an SLP!).
The Chapter Leaders might have discussion topics prepared for the meeting or activities for you to participate in. The format might be the same exact month or activities may vary. Sometimes, NSA Chapters will switch off between typical in-person meetings, virtual meetings, and social gathering.
