SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Description: The goal of the HTYPE Demonstration Grant Program is
to support local educational agencies (LEA) to partner with a nonprofit
or Non-Governmental Organization to build the capacity of schools to
provide skills-based human trafficking prevention education for
educators, other staff, and students, and to establish a Human
Trafficking School Safety Protocol (HTSSP) that addresses the safety,
security, and well-being of staff and students. Eight HTYPE
Demonstration Program project grants were awarded in September 2020,
with a period of performance of 36 months.
The purpose of the proposed information collection is to
investigate and document how HTYPE projects approach and accomplish the
goals of the HTYPE Demonstration Grant Program, inform ACF's efforts to
support human trafficking prevention education in schools, and inform
future evaluation efforts.
The proposed information collection activities include:
(1) One-time, semi-structured interviews or focus groups with
trained LEA staff and implementers at select schools from each grant
recipient site. Interviews/focus groups will include questions focused
on implementation models, participant and implementer engagement, and
implementation facilitators and barriers.
(2) One-time, semi-structured interviews with school staff related
to the process and implementation of the HTSSP at select schools from
each grant recipient site.
(3) One-time web survey with school administrators, which will
include questions focused on school context and engagement, training
mandates, implementation models, and implementation facilitators and
barriers.
(4) One-time web survey with school staff tasked with implementing
the HTYPE curriculum, which will include questions focused on educator
training, student curriculum implementation models and quality,
participant and implementer engagement, and implementation facilitators
and barriers.
Respondents: LEA staff who have been involved in the HTYPE
demonstration programs, including school leadership/administrators,
curriculum implementers, and staff who have received human trafficking
training.
