me best mate is hunting down bilingual kids who stutter--help her, you may be helping a future chomsky

The U. of Maryland hopes to outreach families and teachers who might know or have contact to English/Chinese Mandarin bilingual children who stutter, and invite them to participate in our study.
The study focuses on Chinese/English bilingual children who stutter. So far, very few studies have done so, and we clearly need more knowledge to back us up while providing intervention for Chinese or Chinese/English speaking children who stutter. Your help would mean a great deal to us, and we appreciate any assistance in reaching these families and children. For participants, we will provide parent consultation and welcome any discussion of childhood stuttering, and a small token present will be provided to the child. Families do not need to visit the university. We will mail consent forms, instructions, and materials of the study, available both in English and in Chinese.
I have attached both English and Chinese versions of the recruitment announcement. Please feel free to share this information with all the Chinese families and friends. Also, please contact me if you have any questions. Thank you.
