Westhaven Elmhurst Community Recreation Association s that the transition from childhood to adulthood can often be one of the trickiest time periods in a person’s life. While most people know that being a teenager is a fun and fulfilling time, the reality is that it is also one that can be dotted with several life hurdles that need to be successfully navigated.

From learning to drive and taking important exams to getting your first part-time job and learning how to cook for yourself, being a teenager isn’t always easy. It is for these reasons that we at Westhaven Elmhurst Community Recreation Association make a concerted effort to make sure that teenagers in our local community in N.D.G. are as prepared and empowered as possible to deal with whatever life has to throw at them.

If you think that your teenage son or daughter might benefit from the range of teen-specific services we offer then please do not hesitate to contact us today.

Teen Drop-In Service

Aimed directly at teens ages 14-18 years old, we use our centre to encourage young people to take part in productive opportunities such as DJ-ing and learning about the music industry in a safe and secure environment.

On top of that, we also offer workshops to help our teenage members prepare for their future endeavours, whatever they may be. This includes classes on how to make a CV that stands out from the crowd, mock interviews, university application forms and what it takes to successfully apply for a job.

The drop-in centre allows teens in N.D.G and around Montreal to have a safe place to go to further their skills and thirst for knowledge.
