About Australian Speak Easy Association - NSW / ACT Branch

The Speak Easy Association is a self-help organisation that provides support for people who stutter by holding fortnightly meetings in their respective metropolitan and rural locations. Groups meet regularly to work on fluency techniques, discuss individual stuttering problems and develop self confidence through role-playing and public speaking.nnThe Association's primary aim is to assist stutterers, particularly after they have undertaken some form of speech pathology treatment, by providing opportunities for its members to practice fluent speech skills, and to help individuals manage and control their speech in daily situations.nnTo assist with this, the Association works side by side with Speech Pathologists to help keep our members up to date on the latest techniques and treatments including the technique of Smooth Speech. Does not preclude other forms of help. Supports families of children who stutter.
