OVP: Human Trafficking Council

During the 2014 legislative session, House Bill 14-1273 was signed into law. This legislation established up to a 35-person Human Trafficking Council (The Council) that represents a wide range of agencies including state agencies, law enforcement, prosecutors, NGOs, regional coalitions and task forces, legal services, victim service providers, academia, faith-based organizations, etc. The Council is housed within the Division of Criminal Justice, Office for Victims Programs and is designed to: 

1. Bring together leadership from community-based and statewide anti-trafficking efforts;
2. Build and enhance collaboration among communities and counties within the state;
3. Establish and improve comprehensive services for victims and survivors of human trafficking
4. Assist in the successful prosecution of human traffickers; and
   Help prevent human trafficking in Colorado.
