CARLETON COMMUNITY CENTRE

The Carleton Community Centre is a public amenity located on the Lower West Side of Saint John that aims to promote wellness and quality of life in community members through the provision of various different social, recreational, and basic need programs/services. This ‘Neighbourhood Hub’ known as Carleton Community Centre has been serving residents of the West Side community for nearly 160 years.

Today, the Carleton Community Centre is a recognized registered charity that operates primarily on donations, grants, and service agreements with the city of Saint John. The Carleton Community Centre offers an assortment of recreational activities to keep all members of the community busy regardless of age, gender, culture, physical ability, etc. From providing meals to families who are struggling to make ends meet to hosting special community events, the Carleton Community Centre is creating a lower west where residents are valued, and no one is left behind.

“If you’re climbing the ladder of life, you go rung by rung, one step at a time. Don’t look too far up, set your goals high but take one step at a time. Sometimes you don’t think you’re progressing until you step back and see how high you’ve really gone.”
