Proposed Projects: Domestic Victims of Human Trafficking (DVHT)
Program.
Title: Program Progress Report (PPR).
OMB No:
Description: The Family and Youth Services Bureau (FYSB) in
collaboration with the Office on Trafficking in Persons (OTIP) will
award approximately 12 cooperative agreements to implement the Domestic
Victims of Human Trafficking (DVHT) Program. The DVHT Program is
focused on providing comprehensive case management services to domestic
victims of severe forms of trafficking to ensure the provision of
services with an emphasis on long-term housing, substance abuse
treatment, and the integration of survivor-led services.
The intent of this program is to build, expand, and sustain
organizational and community capacity to deliver trauma-informed,
strength-based, and victim-centered services for domestic victims of
human trafficking through coordinated case management, a system of
agency services, and community partnerships. The DVHT Program
encourages innovative practices and collaboration efforts among
community stakeholders to ensure long-term outcomes for domestic
victims of severe forms of trafficking.
The Program Progress Report (PPR) aims to measure the progress of
the DVHT programs. Grantees are not required to conduct surveys. They
will be collecting non-identical information on specific elements as
part of their program requirements. The PPR data is intended to be used
only to learn about: a) program implementation, b) effectiveness of
programs, and c) to ensure programs are meeting goals/objectives as
required by funding opportunity announcement. The PPR will be submitted
by grantees every 6 months.
Respondents: 12 grantees.
