JOURNEYS provides homeless shelter in partnership with several faith communities across Chicago's north and northwest suburbs. These PADS Shelter locations provide people who are experiencing homelessness a warm place to sleep, dinner, breakfast, and a sack lunch to-go the next day.
PADS volunteers work in shifts throughout the night in order to provide a safe, positive experience for people experiencing homelessness.
