What We Do . . .
NSA meetings are an excellent place to take risks; to try out new communication behaviors, share feelings, and be open about our speech and our lives as people who stutter.

Meetings begin with an "icebreaker" consisting of optional introductions and sharing. At this time, we can talk about challenges we're facing, successes we've had, and insights we've come to. After a short business meeting, we break for refreshments before the monthly program begins.

The monthly program is led by a volunteer facilitator who selects an activity or topic for discussion. This can range from a video on stuttering or stuttering therapy, to a round robin discussion of a challenge stutterers share (for example, how to rise to the challenge of a job interview), to short spontaneous speeches on selected subjects, to a debate on a hot topic in the news.

All participation is voluntary. We encourage each other in doing whatever our individual targets or goals are: stuttering more openly, working on fluency-enhancing techniques, trying out new speaking behaviors (such as reducing word avoidance), or just talking about stuttering. 

But at all times, just being there is enough.
