Kauai Hospice was founded in 1983 by volunteers who saw Kauai’s need for the provision of compassionate care for patients who faced terminal or life-threatening illnesses. At the time, the grassroots organization was operated purely by part-time volunteers. Since then Kaua‘i Hospice has developed into a professionally staffed, Medicare and Medicaid certified organization with a supportive cadre of about 80 specially trained program volunteers and hundreds of general community volunteers. Kaua‘i Hospice is the only hospice on the Garden Island.

The YWCA of Kaua`i has crafted a local mission specific to the needs of Kauai that involves: a strong commitment to eliminating violence in all of its forms, especially in the areas of domestic and sexual violence; providing treatment to those who have been traumatized by violence; and providing the skills training and opportunities for change necessary so that individuals who have been violent can live productive and caring lives. In all of our services to victims and perpetrators of violence, our primary emphasis is to be victim-centered and to foster empowerment..
