Its that time again to say goodbye to another year. 2021 had been a trying year with lots of changes and modifications to our daily lives, but we made it.

Let us take a moment to reflect on the past year and look from something or many things positive. For our centre a huge positive would be the opening of our store – Catena’s Little Treasures at 27 Main St. West Saint John.

​
And the start up of our online auction that can be found on Facebook by searching Catena’s Little Treasures Auction. We want to take this time to thank each and everyone of you for your support during this past year.

We know it had not been an easy one. This is our final Blog for 2021. We will be returning in January with the beginning of our new journey together into 2022. Have a safe and happy holiday season from the staff of Catena Jobs Plus Skills & Development Center.
