The Family Celebration is Vinfen’s signature event, honoring the partnerships that transform lives.

Together, we celebrate the extraordinary relationships between the people we support, their families, our staff, and community partners whose collaboration creates opportunities, fosters independence, and makes lasting change possible.

On October 6, we invite you to join us at the Four Points by Sheraton Norwood for Vinfen’s 19º Annual Family Celebration: The Power of Partnerships. This wonderful event, hosted by the Vinfen Family Advisory Council, honors members of our community who have gone above and beyond to provide exceptional services to individuals with developmental disabilities, mental health challenges, brain injury and autism.

Reserve your spot today and celebrate the partnerships that strengthen our community.

Hosted by WCVB-TV’s Jessica Brown, the evening will feature:


Powerful and inspirational family and self-advocate spotlight stories

The presentation of staff merit awards, and our annual Artistic and Literary awards

A special keynote address by inspirational speaker, athlete, and brain injury survivor Jamie MoCrazy

Delicious dinner and cocktails
