Colorado
In Colorado, all aspects of the sex trade—whether selling sex, buying sex, promoting it, or profiting from it—are completely illegal. Prostitution (selling) and Solicitation (buying) are bifurcated into separate laws. Colorado does allow for criminal record relief for survivors of trafficking. Survivors in Colorado must prove the underlying offense and subsequent record was “proximately caused by” or “as a direct result of” being trafficked. In 2024, the Colorado legislature added human trafficking of an adult or a minor for the purpose of involuntary servitude and human trafficking of an adult or a minor for sexual servitude to the list of crimes of violence that are subject to enhanced sentencing.
