Our Story

Our Why- Wiconi House

Wíconí House was not created from an idea. It was born from lived experience. Founded by Shrounda Davis, inspired by her love for service and family, she transformed her gifts into a welcoming space where care, compassion, and community come together to support families in meaningful ways.

Navigating caregiving while trying to sustain work and life revealed a painful truth: families need support. Quality, compassionate daytime care options are limited. Caregivers are exhausted. And individuals living with dementia deserve more than supervision—they deserve engagement, dignity, and joy.

That is how Wíconí House was born.

Wíconí means “life” in the Lakota language. And that is our mission—to provide life where this disease attempts to diminish it.

Mission Statement

Our Mission

Wíconí House exists to restore life, dignity, and joy to individuals living with dementia while providing meaningful respite and support to their caregivers.

Through structured activities, culturally mindful care, and community partnership, we aim to ease the burden on families and ensure that no caregiver walks this journey alone.
