Hi everybody,

During my several years of schooling, attending ASHA and NSA conventions and from my personal experience I know the great importance of involving the parents in any therapy for children. Including my current position, 2 out of my last 3 jobs have been as a school-based SLP. I have had very little success involving parents. One example of my attempts was that I held a Stuttering Information Night and invited all my parents of kids who stutter (7) and two parents showed up. So, my question is what are some suggestions on how to involve parents - especially the ones who can't or won't ever come to the school?

thanks, Andy
