Build Stronger Families. Create Lasting Connections.
A connected family changes everything.
Join Connected Nest for our annual Family Fest! This event is a day where families, neighbors, businesses, and community partners come together to celebrate childhood, strengthen relationships, and ensure no parent has to navigate the journey or the challenges of infertility, new parenthood, or parenting shifts alone.
Come Have Fun!

Every family deserves connection.
Research continues to show that isolation is one of the greatest threats to parent and family well-being. Yet meaningful relationships can be one of the strongest protective factors for mental health, resilience, and healthy child development. Family Fest exists to intentionally create those moments of connection while raising funds that keep Connected Nest’s programs accessible throughout the year.
Whether you’re expecting your first baby, raising toddlers, navigating school-age years, or simply looking to meet other families – you belong here.
A Family Event building Community Connection.
