BEDS Plus Care delivers emergency services, including overnight shelter, housing services and meals in Southwest Suburban Cook County

Each client who comes to BEDS is either homeless or their housing is threatened.  Professional case managers work with clients on individual service plans to help them secure affordable housing, stabilize, and rejoin their community.  With help from professional and lay volunteers, we provide meals, routine health screenings, physician and behavioral health referrals, legal counsel, and employment support. During the Covid-19 pandemic, clients were housed in a hotel to ensure their safety. Volunteers from St John Chapel donated meals each Tuesday in support of the Beds+ shelter program.

In July, Fr Andrew made chili for 40 homeless clients; Diane and TJ delivered the meals.
