IN NEW JERSEY
New Jersey Gifted Resources 🌱
The New Jersey Association for Gifted Children (NJAGC) is New Jersey’s only statewide nonprofit organization dedicated exclusively to gifted education. Our mission is to promote a deeper understanding of gifted, advanced, and twice-exceptional (2e) learners while advocating for educational opportunities that recognize and support their unique needs.
NJAGC brings together educators, families, school leaders, and advocates who share a commitment to advancing gifted education. We provide professional learning, resources, and opportunities for collaboration while working to elevate awareness and encourage research-based approaches that support the academic, social, and emotional development of gifted learners.
Through our efforts, NJAGC strengthens the capacity of schools and communities across New Jersey to recognize, understand, and support gifted and twice-exceptional learners.
