Our Mission and Vision
Do you struggle to meet the needs of your gifted child?
Do you feel alone in that struggle?
Our goal is to create a community of parents and educators who want to share ideas and create positive change for gifted children. This site will help you network with other parents, both online and through local support groups. It will also be a place to learn about what’s going on in gifted education, locally and at state levels.
We encourage parents:
- to take a proactive role in the education of their children,
- to team up with others in the community to create positive change, and,
- to provide feedback to improve and expand this online community.
Our gifted children deserve to be an active and successful part of the future. Together, we can make that happen!
Our History
NJPING was founded in 2006 by Kenneth Lang and Isabelle Lanini, concerned parents to help other parents. The world of parenting gifted children can sometimes be lonely and exasperating. We feel strongly that when people who share a desire to improve the lives of gifted children work together, great things will happen.
NJPING was referenced in an article from The Record titled “Helping Gifted Kids Fit In” (Section L1, L5) on October 1, 2006. Late in 2006, we had our first
Press Release followed by flyers and a newsletter in the Winter of 2007. Then, we hosted our first ever “Summer Symposium on Gifted Education” on July 25, 2007.
