New
Constitution
The GATCA committee has rewritten the constitution, the
first rewrite for nearly 20 years. This rewrite, which uses straight
forward language, will allow committee members and members to easily acquaint
themselves with the Associations objects. As an easy to read guide the
constitution should service GATCA well in its endeavor to provide for gifted
children and their families.
The proposed constitution is available here.

form is available to vote on the constitution. Postal voting forms
