DuPagePads clients often have health conditions that are intensified by homelessness. Not having stable housing, being food insecure and experiencing harsh weather conditions all negatively impact people’s health and contribute to healthcare gaps.
Recently, Carol Simler, DuPagePads President and CEO, was inducted into the Delta Omega Public Health Honor Society at Benedictine University. Induction into this society is an honor bestowed upon people who have demonstrated outstanding leadership, scholarship, and achievement in furthering the cause of public health.
