JOURNEYS provides emergency shelter located in the facilities of faith communities in our service area. 

These PADS (Public Action to Deliver Shelter) sites provide clients with a safe place to sleep at night as well as dinner, breakfast, and a sack lunch the next day. 

PADS volunteers work in shifts throughout the night in order to provide a positive experience for clients experiencing homelessness.
