Aging Out or Otherwise Homeless Youth
Palm Beach Transitional Housing That Builds Independence
Stable Homes for Youth Aging Out of Foster Care or Facing Homelessness
When foster care ends or crisis hits, too many young people are left without support
At Place of Hope, we provide safe, affordable transitional housing and life-skills training for youth aging out of foster care, community youth experiencing homelessness, and young single mothers with dependent children.
We believe every young person deserves the chance to thrive, and our Independent Living (IL) program offers the foundation to build a stable, independent future.
Independent Living with Purpose and Support
Across our Leighan and David Rinker Campus, Donna’s Place at The Villages, Bender Family Campus and our Sam & Connie Frankino KidSanctuary Campus, Place of Hope offers a pathway to self-sufficiency through our Villages of Hope program.
Youth accepted into the Villages of Hope program live in secure, affordable housing while participating in essential life-skills development, educational planning, and workforce preparation. Through consistent mentorship, community engagement, and individualized care, participants find the tools and confidence to pursue independent, productive lives.
Whether aging out of foster care or facing crisis without a safety net, our residents are never alone.
