About this service
Every five weeks, a staff member visits the Correctional Centre in Clarenville, Newfoundland (140 km west of St. Johns) as part of their pre-release process to talk about programs in the community. The Clothing Boutique and Personal Care Pantry Program have been great resources for women transitioning back into the community from the Correctional Centre. In addition to providing much-needed clothing and personal items, visits to the Womens Centre following release help prevent the isolation and loneliness that often result in recidivism.
We will continue to offer interesting and inspiring programs to all women in a safe, supportive women-only space. Some examples of the Womens Centres recent programs and projects are:
Free massage clinics, mindfulness workshops, walking/running clubs, crafts, floral arrangement workshops, violence awareness, music programs, healthy living and mental health information sessions, menopause discussions, vision boarding workshops, and much more.
Who can use it?
Women and non-binary people in the St. Johns area
