CTS Health Foster Care, a CTSHealth initiative of Carolina Therapeutic Services, works to improve the lives of children who need safe, supportive homes. Founded by Clarence Sutton, the agency focuses on helping children recover from difficult experiences, build confidence, and receive appropriate care, while also supporting their families and communities.

The organization offers several foster care programs tailored to children’s needs. Family Foster Care provides a stable home for children who do not require therapeutic services. Therapeutic Foster Care supports children with mental health or behavioral challenges through trained foster parents and clinical guidance. Intensive Alternative Family Treatment offers in-home support, therapy, and professional oversight for children with more severe needs. Enhanced Therapeutic Foster Care provides short-term emergency placements, while Rapid Response Service offers crisis placements with specialized behavioral support. CTS Health also provides emergency respite placements for foster children.

For prospective foster parents, the agency offers training and licensing support, including scheduled new-parent, first aid and CPR, medication administration, and crisis intervention sessions.
