Stuttering is an obstacle
that affects the verbal communication abilities of a significant
proportion of the population within our community. But people
who stutter needn't tackle this obstacle on their own.
Australian Speak
Easy is here to help
About Us
Australian Speak Easy is a national organisation with State
bodies in New South Wales/ACT, Victoria, Queensland, South
Australia, Western Australia, and Tasmania.
The Speak Easy Association is a self-help organisation that
provides support for people who stutter by holding weekly
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.
The Association's primary aim is to assist people who stutter,
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.
To 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.
If you feel that you or a family member who stutters could
benefit by receiving the support offered by the Australian
Speak Easy Association, please contact
us.
