Keynote Speaker:
Lisa Rivero is a parent, author, and a member of the Board of Directors
of Supporting Emotional Needs of the Gifted (SENG). Her keynote
address, Growing with Intensity, will look at the role intensity plays in
giftedness, so that parents can better help their children with issues
such as perfectionism, stress, and feelings of not fitting in with the rest
of the world.
She will also present two breakout sessions you may choose to attend,
Understanding Gifted Teens and Homeschooling Gifted Children.
