Xavier House Unlimited

Xavier House Unlimited is a non-profit organization that identifies and serves exceptional youth who are struggling in the foster care system. Behaviors associated with high intelligence can be misinterpreted and labeled as problematic. We aim to shift this perspective and give these children a place to reach their full potential.

What is Xavier House?

Xavier House is a spacious 5,000-square-foot, 6-bed foster group home situated on two acres in Lacrosse, FL. This setting provides a nurturing environment where our residents can thrive.

We offer both personal space as well as community living in a supportive atmosphere. Youth at Xavier House attend an on-campus education program focusing on independent living skills, extracurricular activities, and receive specialized social-emotional support.

How We Are Different

At Xavier House, activities that support the growth of our residents are identified and implemented from the beginning. Those who remain until their 18th birthday transition to our young adult villas where they continue to receive support and care needed to succeed in adulthood.

Stats

The United States has over 400,000 children in foster care. Among the youth in the foster care system, there are many with above-average intelligence who struggle to be understood in traditional placements.

Placement instability contributes to inconsistent school attendance, which results in over half of foster care children not graduating from high school.
