Visions of Community (VOC) Watch Parties allow families, caregivers, and professionals to gather locally and participate in the virtual VOC conference together. This year FCSN has partnered with 4 community-based organizations to create welcoming spaces for connection, discussion, and shared learning. Community organizations provide the location and local hospitality, while the Federation provides the virtual conference platform, materials, support and free admission<\/strong>. Joining a watch party is a great chance to meet other local families, build connections and chat with an FCSN staff member. Participants will be able to watch both keynote speakers and will have a choice between 2 workshops during each workshop session. All attendees will have access to workshop recordings for 90 days after the conference, so you can watch anything you missed at your convenience.<\/p>\n Complete your registration for the main conference and select a location near you to participate in a watch party. We\u2019ll see you there!\u00a0 \u00a0Register Here<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_4,3_4″ _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”-40px|auto||auto||” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_4″ _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/fcsn.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/DSC00424-scaled.jpg” alt=”a group looking at a monitor” title_text=”FCSN – YOUTH VOC 2025″ _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” width=”103%” custom_margin=”0px||0px||false|false” custom_padding=”36px||0px||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”3_4″ _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”|300|||||||” text_font_size=”14px” header_2_font_size=”24px” custom_padding=”8px|16px|8px|16px|true|true” border_width_all=”1px” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n UMass Amherst<\/strong><\/p>\n 813 North Pleasant Street Free weekend parking<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span>available directly outside the building.\u00a0 Light breakfast provided.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n Contact: Vivian Sarna vsarna@fcsn.org<\/a><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_4,3_4″ _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_4″ _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/fcsn.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/ARC-Greater-Brockton-from-websitecropped-retina-logo-300×163-1.png” alt=”Arc of Greater Brockton logo” title_text=”ARC Greater Brockton-from websitecropped-retina-logo-300×163″ _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” width=”114%” max_width=”104%” min_height=”109px” custom_margin=”79px||0px||false|false” custom_padding=”||0px||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”3_4″ _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”|300|||||||” text_font_size=”14px” header_2_font_size=”24px” custom_padding=”8px|16px|8px|16px|true|true” border_width_all=”1px” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n The Arc of Greater Brockton<\/strong><\/p>\n 1250 W.
