International Stuttering Awareness Day: Embracing Communication Diversity πŸ—£οΈ

October 22nd marks International Stuttering Awareness Day, a time to raise awareness about stuttering and promote understanding of communication diversity. Over 70 million people globally experience stuttering, and this day encourages us to support individuals who stutter by challenging stigma and fostering inclusive environments.

Why It Matters
In the workplace, recognizing stuttering promotes empathy and inclusivity. People who stutter can face misconceptions and unfair assumptions about their abilities. By raising awareness, we create a supportive environment where everyone’s voice is heard and respected, regardless of how they communicate.

Celebration Idea
πŸ’‘ Host a learning session on communication diversity, inviting employees to learn more about stuttering and how to be patient, respectful listeners.
