Hearts of Service: A Caregiver Connection Conference

April 30th, 2026: Please see below for a special update about this conference

A special place of connection, insight and inspiration. For caregivers to find their place. 

Thank you so much for your interest in the Hearts of Service: A Caregiver Connection Conference.  We are excited to share that this event is evolving to better meet the needs of our community.
In listening to our partners, participants, and the professionals we serve, we recognize the importance of increased access, flexibility, and sustained engagement. In response, this event will now be delivered as a virtual event series, with options to engage through a single session or a series of connected learning opportunities. 

What does this mean?

A shift to a digital format means that we will not be gathering in person on Saturday, May 16th at the Antioch University Yellow Springs campus. This shift allows us to broaden participation, deepen impact over time, and create a more accessible pathway for caregivers and professionals balancing complex schedules and responsibilities.

Where can I learn more about the new format? 

Specific dates & event information is forthcoming. Updates will be shared on the Blue Star Families website:

What resources are available to me now? 

Blue Star Families has several events designed to support military families and professionals working alongside them. We encourage you to explore these opportunities as well, by visiting:

We look forward to continuing this important work with you in a format designed to support real-world application and ongoing connection.
