DuPagePads´ Mission is to End Homelessness in DuPage County.
Dear Friends:
Since 1985, DuPagePads has remained a beacon of hope for those with little or no support while experiencing homelessness. Now more than ever, our mission to end homelessness has become critical to the health and well-being of our community.
The mission of DuPagePads is to end homelessness in DuPage County, Illinois. Our signature year-round programs feed and shelter individuals and families who are homeless, connect them to case management and other services that can address the underlying cause of their homelessness.
To learn more about our work, please read our 2024 Impact Statement. This document reflects how our incredible staff and volunteers at DuPagePads quickly adapted their work to care for individuals and families who desperately needed safety, shelter, and intensive support. These outcomes are not just ours, they are yours.

We believe every person should have a safe place to call home.
DuPagePads is about the journey home.
The solution to end homelessness.
Starts with housing.
Founded in 1985, DuPagePads is the largest provider of interim and permanent housing, coupled with support services in order to help individuals work toward becoming self-sufficient. These vital support services enable the individuals we help to receive case management and life coaching, employment support such as job coaching, as well as engagement with employers—effectively stopping the cycle of homelessness.
DuPagePads IS the solution to end homelessness—because when someone believes in you, everything can change.
