Xavier House
A premier placement for exceptional youth experiencing the foster care system
What We Do
At Xavier House Unlimited, we operate a 6-bed group home located in Lacrosse, FL. Our residence is a spacious 5,000-square-foot home situated on 2 peaceful rural acres. This setting provides a nurturing environment where youth in the foster care system can thrive, offering both personal space and community living in a supportive atmosphere.
The Vision for Xavier House Unlimited
Through our mutual care of the education of youth, I share with you the vision of Xavier House Unlimited and our approach to meeting the learning needs of youth in the foster care system.
The concept for Xavier House Unlimited emerged from two decades of watching countless children in the foster care system who demonstrated the same level of precocity as my own gifted children, but with no one to advocate for their needs and far too few enriching opportunities. As these youth sat night after night in office cubicles waiting for someone to find them the right home, it became clear that the system needed something different, specifically designed for these remarkable “too much” children.

Why We Will Be Different
When a child is placed at Xavier House, their educational needs are assessed and advocated for during the intake process. Activities that support the child’s growth are identified and implemented quickly.
Upon placement, the environment instills the child with a sense of belonging, and their exceptionalities are understood by the staff working with them. Those who remain until their 18th birthday transition to the young adult villas, where they continue to receive the support and care needed to succeed in adulthood while pursuing higher education or a skilled trade.
