Manhattan Chapter of the National Stuttering Association

The Manhattan Chapter of the National Stuttering Association (a non-profit organization dedicated to the support of people who stutter) provides a safe and friendly atmosphere for people who stutter and those who are affected by stuttering (e.g., family and friends). The support group meets once a month and allows people who stutter to meet with others who stutter, share experiences, practice speaking skills and feel a sense of connection. Please e-mail Dr. Kristin Pelczarski for additional information.

Kansas State Student Speech-Language-Hearing Association (KSSSLHA)

KSSSLHA is an organization for students interested in communication sciences and disorders. Each year the group fundraises to make a donation to an organization or group in the community that impacts individuals with speech, language, hearing, or swallowing disorders. Members of KSSSLHA also volunteer in the community with kindergarten screenings. E-mail Jeridy Oetken or Emily Johnson for information.
