Objective
Under the Services to Victims of a Severe Form of Trafficking, the Office on Trafficking in Persons (OTIP) has established the Trafficking Victim Assistance Program (TVAP) and the National Human Trafficking Hotline (NHTH) to build health and human service capacity to respond to human trafficking. The primary purpose of TVAP is to efficiently fund time-limited comprehensive case management services on a per capita basis to foreign national victims of a severe form of trafficking in persons and potential victims of trafficking seeking the U.S. Department of Health and Human Service (HHS) certification so they can reestablish their ability to live independently. Each TVAP Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) was divided into ACF regions, specifically regions 1–4, regions 5–8, and regions 9–10. The NHTH provides 24/7, yearlong, timely, person-centered, trauma-informed, culturally responsive, and linguistically appropriate emergency assistance and information to potential domestic and foreign victims of sex and labor trafficking. Under the NHTH, the following activities are required: operate the NHTH, a 24/7 U.S. national hotline that receives signals through telephone, text, chat, and website; promote NHTH services to increase the identification and protection of victims of severe forms of human trafficking; provide information and service referrals to victims of trafficking using a trauma-informed, person-centered, culturally responsive, and linguistically appropriate approach, and in a timely manner; and notify law enforcement agencies of potential cases of human trafficking, as well as instances when a trafficking victim is in imminent danger, and document emerging trafficking schemes to assist in the detection and investigation of trafficking cases. The NHTH must respond to and track calls and texts in a timely manner; operate website and respond to online signals; maintain national coverage to serve the U.S. and all U.S. territories; develop and maintain a referral database; and raise awareness about NHTH and resources.
