participants outside of the NHTTAC learning management system. There 
are no changes requested to the items on any forms.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

(SOAR to Health and Wellness Act of 2018) (Pub. L. 115-398), which 
expands the SOAR to Health and Wellness Training Program. To meet the 
provisions of the SOAR to Health and Wellness Act of 2018, OTIP's

a public health approach, NHTTAC holistically builds the capacity of 
communities to identify and respond to the complex needs of all 
individuals who have been trafficked, and addresses the root causes 
that put individuals, families, and communities at risk of trafficking. 
This will ultimately help improve the availability and delivery of 
coordinated and trauma-informed services before, during, and after an 
individual's trafficking exploitation, regardless of their age, gender, 
nationality, sexual orientation, or type of exploitation.
    NHTTAC hosts a variety of services, programs, and facilitated 
sessions to improve service provision to individuals who have been 
trafficked, or who are at risk of trafficking, including the Human 
Trafficking Leadership Academy (HTLA); the Survivor Fellowship Program; 
the NHTTAC Call Center; both short-term and specialized T/TA requests
