The ABC is a registered non-profit organization that welcomnes as mnembers anyone interested in the wvelfare of bright childreni. ABC believes that brighit children should not be left to develop by chance. They deserve, as every child does, the opportunity to be ac- cepted for who they are, to learn as much as they cari and to build on and use wvhat they know. Bright children deserve the rig-ht to realize their potential. The local chapters try to meet the needs of aduit members and their children. They bring together parents, teachers and other adults f0 share their experiences and concernis and to pool their resources. ABC does flot test ifs members, children or require "proof". that a child is bright. The only requirement for a child to participate in ABC programs is 'that one adult in the child's family be sufficiently interested in the welfare of bright children f0 join.
