Description

Apna Hath Jagannath is a self help manual for people who stammer(PWS). Stammering affects 1-2% adult population and about 10% of under 15 children. Genetics, upbringing, psychology and social factors interact and cause persistence of stammering in a growing child.

The manual is based on series of self-help workshops run by The Indian Stammering Association (TISA) since 2008, for PWS across India. Language...
