28th Annual Convention

Friends’ mission is to provide support, education and empowerment to young people who stutter, their families and clinicians. We encourage you to request financial help rather than withdraw from attending the convention. To experience the convention at its fullest, scholarship recipients are asked to join the full convention, from opening ceremony to closing ceremony.

Scholarships applications for the 28th Annual Convention in Charlotte, NC will open in February 2025. If you have any questions, please email scholarships@friendswhostutter.org.

We receive a record number of scholarship applications each year. We are thrilled that so many families have found Friends, and while we are offering more scholarships than we ever have before, we are still unable to meet the needs fully.

If you feel moved to support a family’s ability to come to a convention, please visit our donation page and leave a note under “Make this donation in honor or in memory of someone” stating you’d like your donation to go towards convention scholarships. We will ensure that 100% of your donation will go towards scholarships.

If you prefer to donate by check, please mail your check to Friends, 278 Shady Brook Drive, Langhorne, PA 19047, and make a note on the memo line that your donation is for scholarships. We will mail you a donation receipt.
