Forge Moncton
Welcome to Forge Moncton!
Built with youth, for youth. Forge is a space where young people can connect, find support, access resources and services, and be themselves. Youth are part of shaping what Forge looks like, what we offer, and how we grow, because the best youth spaces are built with youth at the table.
What we do
Forge is a youth hub for ages 12–25, offering a welcoming drop-in space, peer support, counselling, and care navigation to help you find the support that fits you. Whether you need someone to talk to, help finding resources, or just a safe place to hang out, Forge is here for you.
Talk with someone who gets it. Our Peer Support Workers draw on lived experience to offer understanding, encouragement, and a judgment-free space to talk.
A free, welcoming space to relax, connect, and be yourself. Drop in to hang out, grab a snack, play games, get creative, or connect with a Peer Support or Youth Care Worker. No appointment or referral needed.
Join us for fun activities, life-skills workshops, and opportunities to meet new people. From crafts and movie nights to budgeting, banking, and preparing for school, there’s something for everyone.
Confidential, professional counselling is available on site for youth looking for additional mental health support. Counselling can help with stress, anxiety, relationships, grief, trauma, and other challenges.
Our Indigenous Cultural Coordinator creates opportunities to connect with Indigenous culture, teachings, traditions, and art through our Wabanaki Connections Space. Indigenous and non-Indigenous youth are welcome.
Get support with your job search, including resumes, cover letters, applications, professional emails, and interview preparation. We can help you build the skills and confidence to take your next step.
Access primary care with a nurse practitioner on site. Appointments can be arranged through Forge Staff. A Medicare card and, depending on age, parent/guardian consent may be required.
