Ethnocultural Communities

The Saint John Region is a diverse, multicultural community with 55 officially incorporated ethnocultural associations. Ethnocultural associations provide essential support for new residents and their families by providing a wide array of independent services and an opportunity to connect with those who share a similar language and culture.
