Ottawa Sleep Inn provides transitional housing and wraparound support for families rebuilding their lives — right in the heart of Canada's capital.
Ottawa Sleep Inn, operated by the Yamin Foundation Inc., is a transitional housing organization serving families across Ottawa — providing safe, welcoming accommodations for clients at every stage of their journey toward stability.
Rooted in values of mercy, justice, and generosity — and warmly welcoming people of every background — we believe every family deserves dignity, community, and the support to build a better tomorrow.
Open to all families regardless of faith, background, or circumstance. Every person is received with dignity.
Deeply embedded in Ottawa’s social fabric, we connect families with the local resources, networks, and opportunities they need to thrive.
From shelter to employment to counselling — we walk alongside families every step of the way.
We provide more than a roof — a genuine pathway toward lasting independence through comprehensive, compassionate programming.
Safe, furnished rooms for individuals, couples, and families — short or extended stays across our Ottawa locations.
Resume support, job coaching, and connections to local employers to help residents re-enter the workforce.
Trauma-informed mental health supports and case management for the emotional wellbeing of every resident.
Nutritious meals, food bank access, and kitchen facilities. Dietary-sensitive options available for all residents.
Workshops, mentorship, and pathways for residents to launch small ventures and achieve economic independence.
From private rooms to family suites, our facilities are maintained with care — furnished to feel like home from day one.
As a non-profit, we rely on donors, volunteers, and partners to sustain our work. Every contribution keeps a family safe tonight.
Both properties are situated in Ottawa's Centretown, offering residents convenient access to transit, services, and the wider community.
