CONNECTING
MILITARY FAMILIES
TO THEIR COMMUNITIES
During Blue Star Welcome Week and all year round, let us give military families a sense of belonging.
BLUE STAR WELCOME WEEK
Do Your Part
Each year more than 600,000 military families move to new communities. Blue Star Welcome Week is a national week of activation to ensure military families feel welcome and community members are inspired to do their part in supporting them.
We designed this special week to ease transition challenges and support military families with opportunities and events that will help them make meaningful connections in their new community. Do your part and join us for this impactful week!
Join us for Blue Star Welcome Week 2026, September 26th — October 4th!
