SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: SUMMARY: PO 00000 Frm 00028 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 72601 Description: Section 107(b)(1)(B)(ii) of the Trafficking Victims Protection Act of 2000, as amended at 22 U.S.C. 7105(b)(1)(B)(ii), authorizes the Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS) to make a grant for a national communication system—the NHTH—to assist victims of severe forms of trafficking in persons in seeking help, receiving referrals, and reporting potential trafficking cases. HHS made an award in the form of a Cooperative Agreement to a single, competitively selected grantee to maintain and support operation of the NHTH throughout the United States and U.S. territories. The NHTH is a toll-free hotline that operates 24 hours a day, every day of the year. The Cooperative Agreement delineates the roles and responsibilities for the administration of the grant program, which include: 1. Operating the NHTH with experienced and trained anti-trafficking advocates; 2. Operating the NHTH website and responding to online signals; 3. Promoting NHTH services to increase the identification and protection of victims of severe forms of human trafficking; 4. Providing timely information and service referrals to human trafficking victims using a trauma-informed, person-centered, culturally responsive, and linguistically appropriate approach; 5. Notifying law enforcement agencies of potential cases of human trafficking as well as instances when a trafficking victim is in imminent danger; and 6. Documenting emerging trafficking schemes to assist in the detection and investigation of trafficking cases. The NHTH grantee collects information about signalers (individuals who contact the hotline) and from signalers regarding potential victims of a severe form of trafficking in persons and human trafficking cases. Given the unique relationship the NHTH has to the public, OTIP is seeking clearance to collect information about and from these signalers that will be summarized and reported to OTIP by the NHTH grantee in the aggregate. The NHTH Performance Indicators information collection will provide data for OTIP to assess the extent to which the grantee meets required program activities to: • Ensure potential victims of trafficking remain able to access assistance by constantly monitoring and mitigating factors impacting NHTH operations; • Assist the grantee to assess and improve their project over the course of the project period; E:\FR\FM\22DEN1.SGM 22DEN1
