VINE lets me sleep at night. I no longer have to feel as if I am helpless and no one else could ever understand what my family and I have been through and will continue to endure daily.

Slide 3

VINE allowed me to locate where my ex-husband was. I found out when he was transferred from one jail to another and was called within 15 minutes of his release. I felt safer because I knew. It’s real important that victims know where their perpetrators are and VINE is here to help them do that.

Registering is free, easy and completely anonymous.

When registering, you’ll need:

1. Offender’s name

2. Your phone number or email address to receive notifications

3. A four-digit PIN* number when registering a phone or text notification

(The PIN number for a text notification is only used when making changes to the existing text notification.)

*Entering the correct PIN and pressing the pound (#) key is the only way to confirm you’ve received the phone notification or to stop receiving the Colorado VINE alerts.

Remember, while Colorado VINE is meant to protect you, don’t rely solely on Colorado VINE for your safety.
If you feel you might be at risk, take precautions as if the offender has already been released.
