The Lidcombe Program is an evidence-based intervention for childhood stuttering. Numerous research studies and clinical trials around the world have consistently shown that the program yields significant reductions in stuttering frequency and severity in young children. The approach is characterized by its early intervention focus, which requires active participation of the child’s carer/s, who play a crucial role in the planning, provision, problem solving and evaluation of the treatment, when working closely with a speech pathologist. With its emphasis on the child practising stutter-free speech in a fun and safe environment, while receiving carefully provided feedback about their talking, the Lidcombe Program provides parents and speech pathologists with an effective and well-researched way to address early stuttering.

Dive into the world of the Lidcombe Program and gain skills and knowledge to equip you to help your young clients to become ‘smooth talkers’.
