A Place of Hope,
Support, and Opportunity

Since 1976

Coverdale
Centre for Women

For nearly five decades, Coverdale has been a place of safety, support, and opportunity in Saint John. Everyone deserves to feel safe, valued, and empowered to reach their full potential.

Since 1976, the Coverdale Centre for Women has supported individuals in Saint John through compassionate, trauma-informed programs and services. While our roots are in serving women and female-identifying individuals, we welcome people of all genders through a range of programs designed to meet diverse needs.

We walk alongside each person on their unique journey, creating opportunities to heal, build confidence, and move toward a brighter future.

Whether you’re looking for support, hoping to give back, or wanting to learn more about our work, we’re here to welcome you. Together with our community, we believe everyone deserves the opportunity to feel safe, valued, and empowered to reach their full potential.
