Joshua’s House Hospice is as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit with a mission - we want to provide a place of shelter, care, and comfort to terminally ill homeless men and women in Sacramento, and to restore their sense of dignity in their final days. We will be the first such facility on the West Coast and the eighth in the country. Named in memory of a young man, Joshua Lee Nielson (1980-2014), who had a vision of preventing homeless men and women from dying alone, scared, and in pain on the streets or along the rivers of our community, our hope is to open doors in Spring of 2021. Due to an increase in construction costs, approximately $800,000 in funding is still needed to break ground. Please help us conquer this hurdle!
