Emergency Shelter Information

WHAT?
The Emergency Shelter at Aamjiwnaang was created for unhoused band members unable to utilize Sarnia’s shelter systems due to lack of beds available, not meeting criteria, and/or restrictions placed on individuals and many other barriers. We are a low-barrier shelter so that the “harder to house” individuals can be supported throughout the colder months. The shelter is not abstinence-based, however, there is to be no use of drugs/alcohol in shelter. The shelter is co-ed with some separation for sleeping and it is staffed by the Mental Wellness team. For shelter hours there will always be one support worker and one security worker. Individuals will be provided with meals/food and smoke breaks throughout the night.

WHO?
Individuals who are unable to attend The Good Sheppard Lodge or their overflow shelter. Guests MUST be a band member of Aamjiwnaang.

WHEN?
The shelter will remain open 24/7 from Dec 5, 2025, until March 30, 2026. Guests are encouraged to complete an intake throughout the day either in person or over the phone and check in before midnight.

HOW?
Self-referral, partner/agency referrals, and Mental Wellness referrals. Staff have been working in collaboration with other agencies in town assisting individuals on the street to find housing in the winter season. They have been instructed to call and complete an intake alongside the person who is attending shelter. A quick intake will be completed over the phone and a taxi voucher will be provided upon arrival at the shelter. In some cases, prior intake is not necessary.

WHERE?
Located at 978 Tashmoo Ave, Sarnia, ON
