Mission Statement:

We envision a time when all students, including gifted and talented students, are given an appropriate educational experience that matches their abilities and potentials, where there is ample opportunity for their intellectual challenge and growth, and those who work with them are adequately trained to appreciate, understand, and nurture their unique talents.

Our mission is to provide an organization for Educators, Psychologists, Parents, Policy Makers, Administrators and others to learn about the unique educational and affective needs of gifted and talented children and how to meet these needs effectively in our schools, families, and communities. It recognizes that gifted children come from all cultural and socioeconomic backgrounds and have diverse abilities and interests.
