During this winter’s Arctic Blast, DuPagePads has remained committed to the health and safety of families and individuals who are homeless. With subzero temperatures and windchills sometimes as low as negative 40 degrees, DuPagePads developed solutions that would ensure no one would be exposed to the elements when weather conditions could seriously jeopardize their health.
This winter, ABC 7 Chicago came out to our Interim (Overnight) Housing site, reporting on the effects of the Arctic Blast on families and individuals who are homeless and seeking emergency shelter. Watch the video by clicking here.
