About Vita Nova
Vita Nova is a safe bridge to independence for former
foster care, LGBTQ, and other homeless youth through
supportive housing, education, employment, and life skills
training. Vita Nova, Inc, located in West Palm Beach, Fla.,
is comprised of three components: the Spot, Housing (The
Village), and Independent Living.
Vita Nova means “new life” in Latin and was founded by
Father Leo Armbrust, a man who believed that foster youth
deserved a better quality of care. Through the efforts of the Kat Joy and Vassilia Binesztok Jill and Jeff DeMario Juliet Roulhac and Derick Ali
Vita Nova team members, its volunteers, and its benefactors,
older foster and homeless youth are allowed to lead lives
characterized by independence, self-determination, and
personal responsibility.
