Join our FREE monthly parents’ and caregivers’ group and find a community of loved ones that are asking tough questions, sharing their highs and lows, and building their confidence in becoming their child’s best advocate and ally!
This June, we’re bringing together a panel of adults who stutter and young professionals for a meaningful conversation. Panelists will share personal stories, answer your questions, and offer insights on supporting your child who stutters.
Will Davis is a 28 year-old living in Washington, D.C. Originally from Short Hills, New Jersey, Will is the oldest of four kids, and a proud graduate of Georgetown University. He is also set to graduate from George Washington University Law School in May 2025. In his free time, Will loves to read, play and listen to music, play sports, and try to keep his houseplants alive. Will has been stuttering as long as he can remember and is a two-time Camp SAY alum!
Aidan Marshall-Cort is a Health and Wellness Professional in the Washington, DC area. He currently serves as a Co-Chapter Leader of the Washington DC Chapter of the National Stuttering Association. Alongside supporting and developing safe spaces for the stuttering community, he enjoys speaking on the relationships and intersectionality between stuttering, race, and neurodiversity.
Daniella Sapone is a SAY alumna and teaching artist. She recently graduated from Barnard College of Columbia University, where she gave a Tedx Talk on communication and active listening, and was one of four student speakers in her commencement ceremony at Radio City Music Hall. She is a theatrical composer and has written five musicals, including Lemon Water, a semi-autobiographical story about her life as a person who stutters, adapted from a book of short stories she wrote during her time as a SAY participant.
This is a welcoming space to connect with others, learn, and feel supported. You’ll leave feeling more informed, empowered, and part of a strong community.
