Individual Services for People Who Stutter

Our individual stuttering services provide personalized speech-language evaluation and treatment for children, adolescents, and adults who stutter. Sessions are conducted by graduate clinicians in speech-language pathology, supervised by nationally certified, state-licensed speech-language pathologists, offering high-quality care in a supportive teaching-clinic environment. Standard clinic fees apply.

Camp for Kids Who Stutter

The Sioris Family University of Minnesota Kids Who Stutter summer camp, running since 2009, brings together children who stutter for a week of connection, confidence-building, and fun. Beyond speech fluency, camp focuses on the social, emotional, and attitudinal sides of stuttering — helping campers build confidence, independence, and joy in communication through activities, field trips around the Twin Cities campus, and peer group discussions. A $100 participation fee applies, with need-based scholarships available.
