PADS Shelter Program

The PADS Emergency Shelter Program provides hospitality, food and overnight emergency shelter to the homeless. The Winter season of PADS runs between October 1 and April 30, seven days a week (including holidays). The Summer season of PADS runs between May 1 and September 30, and has a smaller capacity. The sites are staffed entirely by volunteers who prepare, supervise and clean sleeping accommodations as well as  prepare and serve dinner, breakfast and a sack lunch. PADS sites are open from 7:00 p.m. until 7:00 a.m. ​New clients can come in after 9 p.m., but all other clients must have prior approval to come in after 9 p.m.
For more information, contact Carol Marie O'Marrah at 847-963-9163 x127 or cm.omarrah@journeystheroadhome.org.
