Yocha Dehe provides $1 million grant to YoloCares for new hospice shelter 
The Davis Enterprise, Davis, CA; 6/18/25
The Yocha Dehe Wintun Nation is proud to announce a $1 million grant for YoloCares to expand its adult day care program in Davis and operate a new hospice shelter in Sacramento that will address the complex needs of unhoused terminally ill patients. The first of its kind on the West Coast, Joshua’s House was dedicated on Wednesday and will feature six separate homes that will welcome up to 15 people at a time. YoloCares’ commitment to support and serve the rural and Indigenous communities in its six-county service area means that Joshua’s House will prioritize service to unhoused rural and Indigenous community members in need of care. The professionally staffed home will provide shelter, food, and clothing to people from Sacramento, Yolo, Placer, Solano, Sutter, and Colusa Counties to hospice-eligible patients referred by the major health systems. Licensed professionals will provide hospice care to patients staying at Joshua’s House.
