Adulting is hard, even when you’ve been at it for a while. Gifted and 2e adults often don’t have a welcoming space where we can share the ups and downs of being a smart, quirky person in a world that doesn’t always understand our intensity or get our jokes. Framed by weekly topics, this discussion series is all about celebrating yourself and the other gifted adults in your life.
Gail Post, PhD
Most parents never imagined the complexities they must navigate while raising their gifted or 2e child. Their child’s intensity, heightened sensitivity, asynchronous development, and a wide array of strengths and struggles demand additional time and energy, along with the task of advocating for their education. Parents of the gifted often feel alone and misunderstood – a parallel process to how their child feels with peers.
Join licensed psychologist Dr. Gail Post for a workshop that will explore the gifted parenting experience: how raising a gifted or 2e child requires a different skill set, how to thrive in a world that doesn’t quite understand, and how to find confidence and clarity about parenting decisions. Bring along your own questions, ideas, and wisdom to share!

In gifted education, an important issue that has yet to be sufficiently addressed is the systemic underrepresentation of gifted students who have been left out of school-based advanced learner programs.
The book study is intended to help educators move closer to ensuring equity, access and excellence in gifted education. Each chapter we will study includes key takeaways intended to help educators engage students in conversation and to develop their self-advocacy skills.
