Acton Youth Centre - Grand Opening
The Town of Halton Hills is thrilled to announce the official grand opening of the Acton Youth Centre. Located at 19 Willow Street North in Acton, within the Acton Town Hall, this newly renovated Youth Centre will serve as a hub of activity and a place for youth to gather, socialize, learn, collaborate, innovate, access local services and grow.
The Acton Youth Centre has been set up as a one-stop shop for youth in our community that supports and enhances recreational opportunities, mental health, and other services that support youth in navigating community resources.
The Acton Youth Centre includes a variety of amenities to offer the community including:
- Large open lounge space for gathering and activities
- Front and back outdoor space
- Family style kitchen
- Community meeting rooms
- Shower and laundry amenities
- Accessible bathroom
