Constable shed light on stuttering

We applaud Burt Constable's Jan. 8 column, "A tree-hugger in age of strip malls, Graham had courage," and his fine efforts to shed some light on Mr. Mike Graham's struggle with stuttering, a complex disorder affecting over three million Americans.

Readers whose lives have been affected by the disorder should also know how to contact a nonprofit source of help, the Stuttering Foundation of America.

We provide information on the latest research, a worldwide resource list of speech pathologists who specialize in stuttering, and DVDs, brochures and books on stuttering compiled by the leading authorities in the field.

For more information, offered free , your readers may visit stutteringhelp.org or call our Hotline at 800-992-9392.
