Dear Caroline, Seyhun and her colleagues have utilized the Turkish media to get the word out. They have also promoted the TKB through Turkish conferences. We will have a poster at ASHA as well. Of course, this ISAD conference is our most ambitious PR effort so far. In the near future, we'll also be linking with important Turkish websites. The International Stuttering Association (ISA) has offered its support for the project as well. Aside from some regulations on the type of organization we can form, I'm not aware of any roadblocks we've encountered so far from a political point of view. Our biggest challenge, as you note, is to get the word out. That's hard even in the USA. I believe our paper answers your last question about resources in Turkey. Thanks for the post. Ken
