The Master's thesis deals with the placement of young people with emotional and behavioral problems in Professional Centers and the procedures, feelings and problems of young people within this process of the placement. At the beginning of the theoretical introduction, the population of young people is presented, their characteristics and the connection with the development of emotional-behavioral problems and disorders. I conclude the theoretical introduction with a presentation of professional centers, the organization of upbringing and education, and the process of placing young people in educational groups. In the empirical part, a qualitative and exploratory research is described, during which I conducted interviews with both young people placed in SC Višnja Gora and employed educators. Semi-structured interview guidelines were used as a measurement instrument in the research. The population is represented by young people who, on the day of the interviews, have been placed in SC Višnja Gora for at least one month. The population also consists of employees of the Professional Center Višnja Gora, who have at least half a year of work experience working with young people in the Professional Center. The sample is non-random and opportunity, and it consisted of 4 young people who have been placed in the professional center Višnja Gora for at least one month on the day of the interviews. The sample also consists of 4 educators who have at least half a year of work experience working with young people in the professional center Višnja Gora. In the empirical part, I also present the results as answers to the research questions: how was the placement of the young person in the SC and what feelings accompanied him during this period. What challenges do young people face during placement and how have they adapted to them. I also asked the interlocutors about which adolescent's needs are and which are not being met.
