Gibault was founded in 1921 by the Indiana Knights of Colombus to provide troubled children and families the opportunity to grow emotionally, educationally, spiritually, physically and socially. The children's growth occurs within a highly structured environment where the youth can test new behaviors while working on individualized treatment plans. Treatment plans are designed to teach students to improve their life skills so that they can maximize their potential to accept responsibility for their actions and to gain control over their behaviors.
