This event will bring together families from across the community for connection, laughter, and fun. And we’ll raise funds for programs that support those on the journey to and through parenthood year-round, including our:

Monthly infertility support groups for those navigating the emotional and practical challenges of building a family.
Weekly new mom support groups to help parents adjust, connect, and thrive in the early months.
Parenting Support for the ongoing journey and challenges!
NICU Parent Care Bags that provide comfort and essentials for parents with newborns in intensive care

At Connected Nest, we understand that the path to parenthood can be complex and unpredictable. Whether individuals are embarking on the journey of pregnancy, grappling with infertility, navigating the postpartum period, or adjusting to the demands of early parenthood, we strive to offer multifaceted support every step of the way.

Our mission is deeply rooted in the belief that by fostering connections and solidarity, we can enhance support systems and reduce the challenges and mental distress often faced during pivotal life transitions. We are committed to operating with a trauma-informed, mental health-oriented focus, while ensuring that our programs are accessible and inclusive to all.

Participants of our programs find greater community ties, better their mental health and increase their opportunities to feel empowered.
