Summary

Useful Claims
- The INN Between is a licensed Assisted Living Type II Medical Respite Facility, not a homeless shelter; admission requires a medical referral and assigned 24/7 bed.
- Provides both end-of-life placement for terminally ill individuals and temporary placement for medically frail individuals recovering from illness or injury.
- Incorporated December 3, 2014 as a 501(c)(3); opened August 17, 2015.
- 80 beds currently; 28 FTE staff; $98 stated daily cost per bed; $2,623,950 annual operating budget to operate 80 beds.
- Outcomes through January 2025: 1,00+ clients served (as printed on the page), 184 end-of-life deaths with dignity, 28 clients who rebounded to community housing, 25% of recuperative-care residents in FY24 exited to stable housing.
- Federal Tax ID 47-2329595; facility address 1216 E 1300 S, Salt Lake City, Utah 84105.
- Stated budget composition — and it does not reconcile with the organization's own Form 990. The FAQ breaks the $2,623,950 budget into Government Grants 36%, Direct Public Support 35%, Program Related Income 25%, Fundraising Events 3%, Other 1%. The FY2025 Form 990 (Form 990 record) reports contributions at 93.5% of revenue and program service revenue of $9,872 — roughly 0.4%, against the FAQ's 25%, which on this budget would be about $650,000. The two cannot both describe the same year. The FAQ figures are undated and may be a forward projection for 80-bed operation, or may categorize government grants as program-related income; the wiki does not adjudicate. Anyone using either figure should say which document it came from. Resolving it needs Form 990 Part VIII.
- Executive Director Jillian Olmsted is named as a public contact.
- In 2025, over 400 volunteers gave over 4,000 hours of service.
- 2025: recognized as a Certified Medical Respite Facility by the National Health Care for the Homeless Council (NHCHC).
Verbatim
The INN Between is a licensed Assisted Living Type II Medical Respite Facility, not a homeless shelter. Homeless shelters accept walk-up clients who are seeking emergency shelter on a night-to-night basis. The INN Between is a medical respite facility, meaning it provides temporary housing to individuals who are too ill to be on the streets but not ill enough to be in the hospital. Unlike shelters, The INN Between requires a medical referral for each potential client, and we schedule a projected length of stay, assign a 24/7 bed, and provide access to medical care along with intensive case management and comprehensive emotional and social support.
The INN Between supports our shelter system by providing an end of life placement for terminally ill individuals or a temporary placement for medically frail individuals

Reliability Notes
Self-reported tier. Licensing as an Assisted Living Type II Medical Respite Facility is a strong institutional claim but this page does not cite the Utah Department of Health license number — verify against state registry if needed.
The printed outcome line "1,00+ clients served" appears to be a typo for 1,000+. It conflicts with the homepage's "more than 900 individuals" on the same capture date — both are self-reported and undated beyond "through January 2025" vs "near our 10th anniversary."
