Anduhyaun means “Our Home” in the Ojibwa language. Since 1973 Anduhyaun Inc. has become home to thousands of women and children recovering from the traumas of violence and homelessness.
Anduhyaun Inc. is a non-profit registered charity founded by five grandmothers in 1973 to respond to the needs of Toronto's Indigenous women. It first opened as a hostel, and now provides emergency shelter and second stage transitional housing to women and their children fleeing violence. We make culturally-inclusive, safe spaces available for those who come through our doors to focus on their healing and wellness journey.
