MCGT Fall Speaker Series

If only raising gifted and twice-exceptional kids were as easy as everyone thinks! Parents of bright kids know that finding ways to coach their child to become an independent, confident, and successful individual is harder than most people realize. This session focuses on helping parents find neurodiversity-affirming strategies to support their gifted  or twice-exceptional children.

Welcome to your new community

Connect with other parents through our chapters and MCGT communities.
