Serving the Marine Corps Community Since 2003
Through the years, we have evolved from message boards and our own social media platform to our Facebook Groups and live chat rooms. In 2025, we moved back to our own social media platform, MPCN: Marine Parents Community Network at ConnectAndShare.com. We have supported literally hundreds of thousands of family members through the years giving them a Place to Connect & Share during their recruit or Marine's career in the Corps.
With over 80 volunteers around the United States, we are proud and honored to serve you, our Marine Corps family community, whether you are a parent, grandparent, brother, sister, cousin, or spouse, we are here for every stage of your Marine's career in the Corps and as a Veteran. You are not alone in this journey, and we're glad you've found a Place to Connect & Share®.
