PADS Homeless Shelter
The mission of DuPage P.A.D.S. (Public Action to Deliver Shelter) is to end homelessness in DuPage County. Building on years of experience, DuPage Pads believes the solution is housing, coupled with support services and employment. Over the years, the agency has grown to be the largest provider of services to those who are homeless in the county, last year serving 1,451 individuals including 245 children in 140 families.
Our church hosts individuals and families every Tuesday night from October to May. DGFUMC volunteers coordinate the program and work on the first Tuesday of each month, while other churches work on the remaining weeks.
