I am proud of the work I do as the one-day conference program director at Friends: the national association of young people who stutter. Friends is an incredible national organization, dedicated to supporting and empowering kids and teens who stutter. This year, we are partnering with The Penguins Foundation and #17, Bryan Rust (person who stutters) through his Seats for Strength initiative. Bryan's generosity provides young people who stutter the opportunity to attend a home game and a once in a lifetime meet-and-greet experience.
