At Thompson, we understand the challenges faced by difficult-to-place teens and are dedicated to bringing stability to their lives. Our Placement Stabilization Unit (TPSU) collaborates closely with the Department of Social Services (DSS) to create tailored teams that address the unique needs of each community we serve.

Our Approach
We offer comprehensive support to youth and their families through:
Upon receiving a referral, our TPSU team contacts Case Managers within 24 hours and implements services within the next 48 hours.
Our Services Aim To:


TPSU services are currently available in North Carolina, specifically in Buncombe and Jackson counties.
Our program supports youth of all ages experiencing placement instability or those at risk of instability, including those struggling with behavioral disorders or requiring additional support. This includes youth involved in adoption, family preservation, or investigation cases who need stability and resources to thrive.
At Thompson, we are committed to empowering families and transforming lives through compassionate, evidence-based care.
