Thompson Child & Family Focus (formerly known as Thompson Children's Home) regulations require that only new clothing, bed linens, and towels be donated for this residential psychiatric therapeutic treatment facility for the children aged 6 to 12 years. However gently used clothing can be accepted for infants to 5 year olds in the Day Care Child Development facilities.

Thompson Child & Family Focus is affiliated with the three Episcopal dioceses of North Carolina. Its residential psychiatric treatment program provides a variety of therapeutic, educational, recreational, spiritual, and healing ministries in a nurturing care facility for some of our most abused and neglected children. In most cases the courts have terminated parental rights. Thompson serves children from across the state of North Carolina who are in the care of departments of social services and mental health; it receives no private referrals.

For more information, please call Susan
Thomason or Dina Urquhart.

Financial contributions can also be made to "The Chapel of the Cross" with note on check for: "Rector's Discretionary Fund/Thompson children's clothes."

Send items for inclusion in future "Cross Roads."
The deadline is the first Thursday of the preceeding month.
