Local Chapters - Active and Developing

The basic MCGT membership includes membership in one local chapter. Each of these local chapters, usually organized within a school district or region, provide opportunities for networking and to share information, to work with the schools, to hear speakers on various gifted and talented issues, and to generate and promote enrichment activities for gifted children. Note that some chapters also have their own websites.

Following are alphabetical lists of the local area chapters in Minnesota, both the active chapters and those in development. Use the email addresses listed to contact the chapter directly. If no email address is listed, contact the MCGT office at info@mcgt.net for more information. This list is updated regularly; please let us know if changes need to be made.

If you would like to add another chapter to your membership, visit our Membership page and enter your information in the Additional Chapter for Current Membership section.

If your area does not have a local chapter and you are interested in starting one, read the info in the file below to see what this involves. Then contact the MCGT office at info@mcgt.net for further information about starting a chapter.
