You can help shape the future of NAGC

NAGC relies on the knowledge and dedication of members like you to advance the field and create a better future for gifted children. Regardless of how you came to the field or your role in it, there is a place for you to share your unique insights and expertise. 

Nominations

Nominations are open for positions on the NAGC Board of Directors and in Network leadership. You can review the position descriptions and qualifications to determine what role could be the best fit.

NAGC values its members' diverse talents, expertise, and contributions. Per policy, members of the Board of Directors may not simultaneously serve in another leadership position within the association (e.g., Committee member, Network chair, etc.) during their term. If someone is elected to the Board of Directors while already serving in another NAGC position, they must resign from the previous position before assuming the newly elected role.

To maximize participation opportunities and give more people a chance to get involved, NAGC members are urged to run for only one elected position in the association at a time each election cycle. If a member is elected to serve as a Network chair while already serving in another leadership position, it is recommended they step down from their current role before starting the new one to keep things running smoothly.
