Inspiring Words From Vice President Biden

8/13/2013

0 Comments

 
A few months back one of my fabulous students, Spencer, wrote a letter to Vice President Joe Biden and shared with him his experiences with stuttering.  As many of you may know, VP Biden, whose very job it is to speak publicly, identifies as a person who stutters (PWS).  He is a spokesperson for the American Institute of Stuttering and has spoken publicly about stuttering on such talk shows as The View (posted above).  Because I am so very proud of Spencer and all of my students for their willingness to advertise and educate others on stuttering, I have attached the letter Spencer received from Biden (upon Spencer's permission of course!)
