About this service
The Downtown Ambassador program was launched in June 2016, initiated by Downtown Moncton Centreville Inc. (DMCI) in partnership with the City of Moncton and YMCA ReConnect. Through the initiative, two Downtown Ambassadors work to provide a variety of public safety, hospitality and goodwill services. YMCA ReConnect administers the program and its staff, whose overall goal is to make downtown Moncton a welcoming and inclusive place for those living, working and visiting. As part of their role, the workers provide outreach services to those experiencing homelessness and work with the business community. Although a more traditional summer program, the ambassadors have worked throughout Spring, Fall, and even the Winter months. Downtown Ambassadors engage in crisis prevention/interventions and make necessary referrals if needed during their regular walks through the downtown core. The work of the Downtown Ambassadors is carried out in partnership with municipal bylaw officers and outreach agencies.
