Join the Laboratory to Combat Human Trafficking in collaboration with Black Hawk Police and Gilpin County Sheriff’s Office for an important training on how human trafficking is impacting our region. This training is for casino management and staff including surveillance, security, hotel and casino staff, as well as law enforcement officers. Members of the community, first responders, and local government are also welcome. The crime of human trafficking exists across the state of Colorado but the presence of casinos can add to demand, foster environments where exploitation can occur, and come with their own set of challenges for monitoring and enforcement. Casino and hotel operators, staff and security, and local law enforcement all have a role to play in combatting human trafficking.

What you will learn:

• How to identify human trafficking situations and potential victims
• How to connect to local anti-trafficking and victim support resources and develop protocols to protect and support victims
• Legal aspects of human trafficking cases and tips on how to assist in investigations

The Laboratory to Combat Human Trafficking is a leader in Colorado’s anti-trafficking movement since 2005.
