Abstract: The Office of Planning, Research, and Evaluation (OPRE), in collaboration with the Office on Trafficking in Persons (OTIP), within the Administration of Children and Families (ACF) at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services seeks approval to conduct two multi-mode surveys, gathering information from individuals who seek assistance from the National Human Trafficking Hotline (NHTH) as part of OPRE’s Evaluation of the NHTH Program. The purpose of this study is to describe the NHTH’s services and the short-term outcomes of contacting the NHTH. Data collected in this study will be used to inform future efforts to monitor and improve human trafficking hotline services; the data are not intended to be generalized to a broader population. We do not intend for this information to be used as the principal basis for public policy decisions.
