The colorado internet crimes against children task force is committed to protecting children by investigating and prosecuting crimes that are facilitated by the internet, technology and computer use

The colorado icac task force consists of 110 law enforcement and prosecutorial affiliate agencies serving multiple jurisdictions throughout the state of colorado. The primary goal of the task force is to improve its effectiveness in activities aimed to protect youth from victimization by aggressively investigating perpetrators who distribute child SEX abuse material and the enticement of victims online. To accomplish these goals, the task force will implement several federally funded strategies. These strategies include the following: to increase the community awareness programs across the state to include incorporating parent educational programs, to provide outside agencies with technical assistance, to ensure thataffiliate agencies receive the necessary training and tools to stay current on technology and online trends and to conduct proactive investigations through strategically planned operations with local affiliate agencies. As the lead agency for colorado icac, the colorado springs police department (CSPD) will continue to coordinate affiliate grant funding, assist in investigations, as needed, and provide any technical assistance. To maintain support for all task force members, the lead agency will maintain three key positions: 1) the icac program coordinator and 2) two full-time civilian criminal investigators. The program coordinator will continue to coordinate affiliate grant activities and community education while the civilian criminal investigators will continue to focus on managing and distributing the multitude of cyber tips received each year. The task force affiliates who have requested funding will be awarded supplies, software and training necessary for their investigations.
