The National Stuttering Association Annual Conference is a gathering of adults, children, families, and friends who share stuttering as a common bond.
During our days together, we’ll be educated, motivated, and challenged. We’ll be moved as we listen to stories from people who stutter and as we share our own stories, perhaps for the first time.
Most importantly, we’ll realize how amazing it is to belong to a very special community of caring souls who understand exactly how stuttering impacts one’s life.

The NSA has reserved a block of hotel rooms that will sell out. We highly encourage you to reserve your hotel room TODAY at the outstanding rate of just $174 a night (+taxes/fees). Booking your room today will guarantee you’ll be right in the heart of all of our exciting Conference activities.
Payment Options
No payment or deposit is required at this time – that’ll happen in early January 2019. Please note that those using a debit card at check-in will have an immediate hold for funds placed on their checking account by their financial institution. The amount held will be less than or equal to the total of the room (+taxes/fees), plus $75 per day to cover incidental charges. Funds may be held by your financial institution for up to 5 business days or longer after check out before being released. We suggest that guests authorize a credit card at check in, and then pay with a debit card at check out to avoid unnecessary holds on your account.
