On Tuesday, the City Council’s homeless solutions committee held a special-called meeting to hear from three different organizations on their efforts to provide housing for the homeless in other cities and how this approach could be applied in Dallas. ... Chris Kulac, CEO of the Visiting Nurse Association, presented plans for the new hospice house for homeless individuals in Dallas. ... The hospice house will be a small, licensed assisted-living facility in the Wilson Historic District of Old East Dallas, offering five rooms for individuals requiring end-of-life care who have no home.
