In this SIG 4 activity, authors explore ways to provide experiential learning to graduate
students enrolled in stuttering courses (Palasik, Hughes, & Ellis) and discuss the clinical
experiences of school-based speech-language pathologists related to stuttering (Panico,
Daniels, Yarzebinski, & Hughes), strategies for teachers to support children who stutter
(Cozart & Wilson), and ways to interrupt the narrative of ableism that surrounds the
treatment of stuttering (Gerlach-Houck & Constantino). Each of these articles provides a
unique perspective on ways that professionals can seek to create a more supportive
environment for our clients who stutter by changing the foundations of the way we teach
preservice clinicians, support our school-based colleagues, and address the narrative of
ableism that pervades our culture.
