2 ways to speak out
Letter to Elected OfficialsYour elected officials respond best to constituents. At times NJAGC has a message for our federal and state elected officials that we will write for you to send, via email or webform, on behalf of gifted students in NJ.
In order to help in this way, please send your name, home mailing address and email to advocacy@njagc.org There is strength in numbers and we need your help. |
