Building Real Homes for Forgotten Youth

St Claire Family Homes is a developing nonprofit organization with a mission to create safe, structured, and trauma-informed group homes for foster youth ages 5 to 17.

We are not another shelter. We are building a new standard — a true family-style model that prioritizes discipline, healing, and long-term success. Our first home is currently in development, and with the help of committed partners and supporters, we intend to launch House One — the beginning of a scalable system designed to transform how youth in crisis are cared for.

Why We Exist

The current system fails many of our most vulnerable youth — especially those bouncing between placements, detention centers, or unsafe living environments. Many never get the structure, consistency, or emotional support they need during the most critical years of their development.

St Claire Family Homes exists to close that gap — to give kids more than a place to sleep. We’re giving them a place to grow, to learn, and to become who they were meant to be.

What We’re Building

We’re developing a multi-tiered model:

• Harmony (Ages 5–8): Stabilization, nurture, early intervention

• Aspire (Ages 9–12): Emotional resilience, academic support, routine

• Summit (Ages 13–17): Life skills, mentorship, prep for independence

Every house will reflect structure, compassion, cultural awareness, and community connection.

Who We Are

Founded by Jordan Midgette in 2023, a youth advocate with lived experience in foster care and years of front-line nonprofit work —

St Claire Family Homes is rooted in the real-life gaps Jordan experienced firsthand. This isn’t a side project. It’s a calling.

We’re building what should have existed already.

What Comes Next

Our first milestone is securing House One

Our first residential group home. Once launched, we’ll begin hiring, training, furnishing, and preparing for our first group of youth placements.

Please feel free to help us open the door.
