SailFuture is a civic and social organization based in St. Petersburg, Florida, focused on services for teens in foster care. Its offerings include residential group care, foster parent recruitment and training, mental health services, job training, and an accredited private high school, all designed to address the social determinants that influence outcomes for youth in the foster system. The organization operates two off-site residential treatment programs, runs an accredited high school, and conducts multi-month sailing programs on a 65-foot vessel through Central America and the Caribbean, reflecting a cross-disciplinary approach to support and development for its clients. SailFuture’s activities position it within the child welfare sector, aiming to provide comprehensive support that spans housing, education, health, and workforce readiness. A notable recent development is the establishment of a youth services partnership with CareerSource Pinellas, formalized in July 2023.
