Ariel Clinical Services Ariel Clinical Services provides services to Children, Families and Adults from our offices in Grand Junction, Denver, Colorado Springs and Delta, CO

Ariel Clinical Services was founded in 1994 in Grand Junction, Colorado. We are a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that provides an array of services for children, families, and adults. We are currently the largest Child Placement Agency in the state of Colorado serving approximately 250 children in foster care. We are serving an increasing number of adults with developmental disabilities at all four of our locations. Ariel Clinical Services was started by Kregg Thornburg, a special education teacher in Mesa County. Kregg had a passion and commitment to children that others found difficult to manage. He loved to think outside the box and take a creative approach to helping kids challenged by their life circumstances. Kregg's drive to help these children led him to the therapeutic foster care model and the beginning of Ariel Clinical Services. Kregg passed away in 2003 of Lou Gehrig's disease but his legacy lives on today. Ariel has expanded their services to included serving adults with developmental disabilities and other unique programs to help children and families thrive. Ariel Clinical Services has four different office locations in Grand Junction, Delta, Denver, and Colorado Springs. We have both foster homes and host homes in those communities as well as the surrounding areas.
