Domestic Sex Trafficking is escalating in Colorado. With current social media entrapment tools, both girls and boys, especially our vulnerable youth, are at risk, and the numbers are rising. From Silenced to Saved (FSTS), founded in 2019 by Jenelle Goodrich, is the ONLY non-governmental organization currently approved by the FBI and state and local law enforcement agencies to respond on scene to victims of Sex Trafficking in Colorado.

Since FSTS was formed in December 2019, we have assisted 275 victims in the Denver Metro Area and provided over 7,500 advocacy services.  Traffickers and sex buyers were sentenced to a total of 1,230 years in prison.    FSTS has conducted awareness training for over 5,000 people.  

Human Trafficking is not a Myth!

  • The average age of entry is 12-14 years old for girls and 11-13 for boys
  • 300,000 children each year are at risk of some form of sexual exploitation
  • 60% of children trafficked are recruited by peers
  • Life expectancy after entry is 7 years
