Goals & Priorities

NAGC makes gifted learners a national priority

NAGC's mission is to support those who enhance the growth and development of gifted and talented children through education, advocacy, community building, and research. We aim to support parents and families; K-12 education professionals, including support service personnel; and members of the research and higher education community.

Working together we will achieve the vision where giftedness and high potential are fully recognized, universally valued, and actively nurtured to support children from all backgrounds in reaching for their personal best and contributing to their communities. Through the year 2021, the NAGC Board of Directors charges the National Office to achieve the vision by focusing on Minds, Policies, and Practices. See the strategic framework for more detail.
