Welcoming Nikki – our Grants Coordinator

This formal introduction is well overdue, as Nikki joined us in April of 2019! It has been wonderful having her join the team, taking charge of the Grants Coordinator position, previously filled by the amazing Frances.

2019 in Review

This year has been one of new developments and change here at the Stuttering Treatment and Research Trust (START). Alongside that, was our ongoing work with people who stutter and with other professionals developing their practice in this area. As always, after 12 months of hard work, we like to look back and reflect on all that’s gone on at START this year.

Research

Supporting research about stuttering is an important part of what we do at START.  

Over many years, the START has collaborated with a number of national and international organisations including Australian Stuttering Research Centre (ASRC), University of Technology Sydney (UTS), Murdoch Children’s Research Institute (MCRI) and the New Zealand Coaching and Mentoring Centre (NZMC). 

START supports Honours students from Massey University’s Speech Language Therapy Programme and Masters students from the University of Auckland’s Speech Science Programme to complete research into stuttering within New Zealand.  Most recently this has involved developing a Teacher Resource – link here

We also support other organisations and individuals in their research, and encourage people who stutter to participate (if interested). Current research projects are listed below:
