The traditional framing of stuttering from an observer’s viewpoint is evolving to instead be viewed through the lens of a speaker’s lived experiences. Strategies for writing evidence-based practice (EBP)-supported goals in a Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, Time-Bound (SMART) format, along with clinical scenarios demonstrating practical application to assessment and treatment, are presented in this course.
