ABSTRACT
With recent changing trends in healthcare delivery and reimbursement, the focus on more efficient and cost-effective intervention has become increasingly important. A summary of desired clinician skills and responsibilities reported in the literature are presented along with information on structuring group intervention. Preliminary findings and a rationale for conducting speech therapy in a group environment with several adults who stutter are presented. In addition, findings and perceptions gleaned from the authors' experience in conducting group treatment with persons who stutter are also discussed.
