PADS/Interim Housing Center
The DuPage PADS Interim Housing Center in Downers Grove, known affectionately as the IHC, provides a safe place to sleep, food, and connections to case management for approximately 300 people each night through 115 rooms.
Since operating this model of shelter, the first hotel-to-interim housing conversion in Illinois, DuPage Pads has seen significant client successes, and improved health and safety for client families. They also provide financial information and lessons learned to peer agencies across the state who are embarking on the creation of similar models.
