ISAD -
International Stuttering Awareness Day "You are not alone" The fourth annual International Stuttering Awareness Day - ISAD 2001 "You are not alone" will be celebrated on October 22 this year. While the spoken word is taken for granted by most, the use of spoken language is challenging for millions of people living with stuttering around the world. It is estimated that approximately 1% or 60 million people with whom we share our world- stutter. For many of us daily communication is a constant struggle and our speech does not open doors but closes them for interpersonal, academic, professional development and personal fulfilment. ISAD 2001, "You are not alone" is an opportunity for people living with stuttering to meet others who
stutter and to share our common bond in a supportive and safe environment. The theme of 'You are not alone"
encourages stuttering organizations to create activities in their communities, countries and internet to enable
people living with stuttering to come together. TIPS FOR EDUCATION AND AWARENESS
