DCAGT's mission is to:
1) foster an understanding of all gifted children, and any subcategories of giftedness (including twice exceptional (2e) children), and their exceptional needs and
2) advocate for gifted children’s needs through partnerships with educators, parents, administrators, legislators, organizations and the general public, and
