Activities Involved

Gifted People Services

Gifted People Services (G.P.S.) is a registered non-profit, grassroots organization. Founded in 2012 by a mother of a child with Autism and global developmental delay, founder and executive director Dianna Jiang recognized how important it was to have various supports before and after the diagnosis of a developmental disability. GPS’ core belief is that individuals with special needs are gifted and unique. Individuals with special needs deserve to enjoy life to the fullest. GPS was thus built on serving the families with special needs in our community, helping them discover and foster their child’s interests and skills along the way.
