The Vanier Centre for Women (French: Centre Vanier pour les femmes[1]) in Milton, Ontario is a medium correctional facility for female offenders serving sentences of less than two years or who have been arrested and are remanded in custody awaiting trial.[2][3][4] The institution has capacity for 333 inmates.[5] Services for French-speaking people are offered at this facility.[6]

As it is a maximum-security provincial jail, immigration detainees may be held at the Vanier Centre under the Canadian Border Services Agency.[7]

The Vanier Centre is named after Pauline Vanier, a Canadian humanitarian and the wife of Georges Vanier, a former Governor General of Canada.
