The National Stuttering Association®, as a non-profit organization, operates with a very small staff. Through honed efficiency, telecommuting technology (we were working remotely before it was cool!), and a network of volunteer and contract help, this staff is able to bring hope, support, and encouragement to thousands of people who stutter of all ages and the professionals who serve them. Staff members execute the day-to-day operations of the organization and do not sit on/vote with the Board of Directors.

Staff members execute the day-to-day operations of the organization and do not sit on/vote with the Board of Directors. The NSA Staff motto is: You do your job, I’ll do mine.
