Stuttering is a communication disorder in which the flow of speech is broken by repetitions, prolongations or abnormal stoppages of sounds and syllables. Unusual facial and body movements may also be associated with the effort to speak.

• 3 million people in the U.S. stutter (approximately 1% of the population); 60 million worldwide.
  
• Stuttering need not impede success in adulthood. Winston Churchill, John Stossel, Bill Walton, Carly Simon and even James Earl Jones are among the many people who overcame their stuttering.
  
• 3 out of 4 stutterers are male.
  
• There is no known single cause for stuttering, but current research being conducted for Janus Development Group, Inc. is focused on the connection between stuttering and the neurological coordination of speech.
