  • The goal of the PADS program is to provide hospitality, food, and emergency shelter to homeless people from October 1 through April 30 of each year. The sites are staffed entirely by volunteers who prepare, supervise, and clean sleeping accommodations. They also provide, prepare, and offer dinner, breakfast, and a sack lunch, all in a welcoming, supportive, safe environment.

  • 18 sites are located in the Northwest Suburban area.
  • Services available October 1st - April 30th, seven days a week, from 7 pm to 7 am, including holidays.
  • The program is funded by faith communities, individuals, corporations, social and civic organizations and foundations.
