U-ACT Colorado – United to Fight Child Trafficking
Our Mission
U-ACT Colorado is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit committed to ending child sex trafficking in Colorado. We empower individuals, families, churches, and communities to take action through education, advocacy, prayer, and strategic partnerships.
Our mission is simple and urgent: protect children and prevent trafficking before it starts.
The Digital Gateway: Why Early Cell Phone Use Puts Kids at Risk
Most children receive their first cell phone by age 11 or 12—giving them instant access to the internet, social media, and chat apps. Many of these platforms are unregulated, anonymous, and unsafe.
Over 80% of child sex trafficking cases now begin online.

Most Parents Don’t Realize How Quickly Danger Escalates
Children are trusting. The online world is fast-moving. And traffickers know exactly how to exploit both.
U-ACT Colorado Stands in the Gap
We help parents, schools, churches, and youth organizations stay ahead of online threats by:
✅ Raising awareness about cell phone and internet safety
✅ Teaching the signs of grooming and digital exploitation
✅ Advocating for stronger protections, policies, and public awareness
✅ Equipping adults to take action and protect kids in their care
We stand in the gap through education, prevention, and bold advocacy—so every child has a chance to grow up safe and free.
