GOVERNMENT CODE §84308 APPLIES: Yes
DISCUSSION
In 2010, the U.S. Department of Justice's Office for Victims of Crime (OVC) and the
Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA) launched the Enhanced Collaborative Model Task
Force to Combat Human Trafficking Program to help communities develop
multidisciplinary task forces that employ victim -centered approaches to identify
survivors, provide services, and investigate and prosecute all forms of human
trafficking. Since then, the OVC has become the largest federal funder of anti -trafficking
programs in the United States.
The Anaheim Police Department applied for the FY 2023 Enhanced Collaborative
Model Task Force to Combat Human Trafficking Grant with the California Highway
Patrol, Irvine Police Department, and Santa Ana Police Department as partners in the
FY 2023 Enhanced Collaborative Model Task Force to Combat Human Trafficking Grant
August 20, 2024

Orange County Human Trafficking Task Force (OCHTTF). The Anaheim Police
Department has been awarded $750,000 and the Santa Ana Police Department has
been allocated a subaward in the amount of $75,000 as a sub -recipient under this grant.
The grant is anticipated to continue to fund the OCHTTF from October 1, 2023 to
September 30, 2026. The OCHTTF is a partnership between the Anaheim Police
Department, the Santa Ana Police Department, the Orange County District Attorney's
Office, Waymakers (lead victim service -providing agency), and other local and federal
agencies.
The collaborative partnership between the Anaheim Police Department and the Santa
Ana Police Department will address the following four areas: partnership, protection,
prosecution, and prevention. The purpose of the OCHTTF is to work together to protect
victims, prosecute offenders, and prevent further human trafficking in Orange County.
The grant will provide funding to reimburse the Santa Ana Police Department's
participation in the OCHTTF for any overtime work and travel expenses for the detective
assigned to the OCHTTF for any qualifying training and conferences.
The Memorandum of Understanding from the Anaheim Police Department inadvertently
omitted the grant amount to be subawarded to the Santa Ana Police Department
(Exhibit 1). The First Amendment specifies the amount of the subaward as $75,000 and
also provides the federal grant requirements associated with this subaward (Exhibit 2).
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
There is no environmental impact associated with this action.
FISCAL IMPACT
Approval of the appropriation adjustment will recognize $75,000 in the Department of
Justice Grants account (no. 12714002-52001) and appropriate same to the Office for
Victims of Crime Human Trafficking expenditure accounts for expenditure follows:

FY 2023 Enhanced Collaborative Model Task Force to Combat Human Trafficking
Memorandum of Understanding
Enhanced Model to Combat Human Trafficking Project
Between the lead law enforcement agency,
Anaheim Police Department,
in partnership with the
Santa Ana Police Department
February 2024
Introduction:
Human trafficking in California is an unsavory reality, impacted by a foreign border, international
airports, substantial shipping harbors, an internationally active entertainment industry, and the
popularity of U.S. tourism to the state. As the third largest county in California and the sixth largest
in the nation, Orange County celebrates a diverse population of over three million, with over 42
million visitors per year per the Orange County Visitors Association. Orange County contains
numerous unincorporated areas and 34 cities; including the County Seat, Santa Ana, which has the
sixth largest Spanish-speaking population in the nation. Orange County is a prime target for
traffickers given the population density, the perceived affluence of residents, robust tourism and
convention industry, along with its nationally recognized beaches, theme parks and home to world
champion professional sports teams.
Orange County has a multidisciplinary, anti -human trafficking model designed to combat human
trafficking through identification, rescue and assisting victims of all forms of human trafficking.

The duration of this MOU will encompass the entire
FY 23 Enhanced Collaborative Model Task Force to Combat Human Trafficking project funding cycle,
anticipated to occur throughout 10/01/2023 — 09/30/2026.
The Orange County Human Trafficking Task Force (OCHTTF) is a model program relying on a
public -private sector and non-profit partnership including the Anaheim Police Department (APD) as
the lead law enforcement agency; the Orange County District Attorney's Office, which, provides
both misdemeanor and felony case vertical prosecution through its Human Exploitation and
Trafficking Unit (HEAT); and Waymakers as the lead victim service -providing agency. The Task
Force is strengthened by partnerships with federal, state and local agencies, and supported by many
additional private sector and non-profit organizations.
Orange County is a unique model of true collaborative efforts. The OCHTTF has fostered rich
partnerships which have empowered law enforcement agencies to work across jurisdictions to
ensure successful identification and rescue of human trafficking victims and the eventual
prosecution of trafficking perpetrators.
Scope of Collaborative Relationships:
The collaborative partnership between APD and the Santa Ana Police Department (SAPD) will
address the four pillars of the task force goal: partnership, protection, prosecution and prevention.
The OCHTTF is a collaboration of law enforcement agencies, non -governmental organizations,
faith -based organizations, and the community. The purpose of the OCHTTF is to work together to
protect victims, prosecute offenders, and prevent further perpetration of this crime in Orange
County, CA. The overall goal of the OCHTTF is to eliminate human trafficking in Orange County,
California. This task force has made a tremendous impact in addressing all types of human
trafficking cases. However, the success of the OCHTTF has highlighted the need to expand this
comprehensive and multi -disciplinary approach in the battle against human trafficking. Hence,
APD and SAPD are working closely together to combat human trafficking in Orange County by
N

focusing on three core objectives; identifying and quantifying the scope of the problem in Orange
County; investigating suspected incidents vigorously and effectively in order to secure the
appropriate criminal convictions for those responsible; and collaborating with local agency patterns
within law enforcement, county and state government, and non -governmental service providers to
ensure the victims of these crimes receive the wrap -around services they need to rebuild their lives
and avoid future victimization.
Period of Performance:
The term of this MOU shall commence upon its execution by the parties. The initial term of this
MOU shall expire on September 30, 2026, unless otherwise terminated by the parties as provided
herein. This MOU may be renewed on the same terms and conditions and upon mutual written
agreement among the parties based on written notification from the Anaheim Police Department.
Human Trafficking Investigations
Anaheim Police acknowledges human trafficking investigations are very complex and time
consuming. Like many other types of complex investigations, it takes time for investigators to build
the skills and experience necessary to work human trafficking cases at an optimal level. This
experience is never more needed than when investigating human trafficking of minors given, they
have the potential to be life cases. With this in mind, APD requests SAPD to consider personnel
who are open to a minimum of a two-year commitment to the task force. In this way, the task force
benefits greatly from a reasonable term commitment and SAPD in turn gains a more experienced
investigator upon completion of the assignment.
The duration of this MOU will encompass the entire
FY23 Enhanced Collaborative Model Task Force to Combat Human Trafficking project funding cycle,
anticipated to occur throughout 10/01/2023 -- 09/30/2026.

For as long as grant funds exist the task force will pay for any pimping/human trafficking training
and/or attending conferences, including registration fees, transportation and lodging. All other
training will be the responsibility of the respective agency.

enforcement, victim services, prosecution, survivors, and the community. Expected outcomes include an increase
in the number of total victims identified and served, an increase in the percentage of victims of labor trafficking
being served, and an increase in the number of labor trafficking cases being investigated. The geographic area to

ce for Civil Rights Notice for All Recipients
The Office for Civil Rights (OCR), Office of Justice Programs (OJP), U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) has been
delegated the responsibility for ensuring that recipients of federal financial assistance from the OJP, the Office of
Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS), and the Office on Violence Against Women (OVW) are not engaged in
discrimination prohibited by law. Several federal civil rights laws, such as Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and
Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, require recipients of federal financial assistance to give assurances that
they will comply with those laws. Taken together, these civil rights laws prohibit recipients of federal financial
assistance from DOJ from discriminating in services and employment because of race, color, national origin, religion,
disability, sex, and, for grants authorized under the Violence Against Women Act, sexual orientation and gender
identity. Recipients are also prohibited from discriminating in services because of age. For a complete review of these
civil rights laws and nondiscrimination requirements, in connection with DOJ awards, see https://ojp.gov/funding/
Explore/LegalOverview/Civil Rights Req uirem ents. htm.
Under the delegation of authority, the OCR investigates allegations of discrimination against recipients from individuals,
entities, or groups. In addition, the OCR conducts limited compliance reviews and audits based on regulatory criteria.
Page: 2 of 22
These reviews and audits permit the OCR to evaluate whether recipients of financial assistance from the Department
are providing services in a nondiscriminatory manner to their service population or have employment practices that
meet equal -opportunity standards.
If you are a recipient of grant awards under the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act or the Juvenile Justice
and Delinquency Prevention Act and your agency is part of a criminal justice system, there are two additional
obligations that may apply in connection with the awards: (1) complying with the regulation relating to Equal
Employment Opportunity Programs (EEOPs); and (2) submitting findings of discrimination to OCR. For additional
information regarding the ESOP requirement, see 28 CFR Part 42, subpart E, and for additional information regarding
requirements when there is an adverse finding, see 28 C.F.R. §§ 42.204(c), .205(c)(5).
The OCR is available to help you and your organization meet the civil rights requirements that are associated with DOJ
grant funding. If you would like the OCR to assist you in fulfilling your organization's civil rights or nondiscrimination
responsibilities as a recipient of federal financial assistance, please do not hesitate to contact the OCR at
askOCR@ojp.usdoj.gov.
Memorandum Regarding NEPA
NEPA Letter Type
OJP - Categorical Exclusion
NEPA Letter
The purpose of this program is to develop, expand, or strengthen a multidisciplinary approach to better
respond to human trafficking. This collaborative approach must include victim and social service
providers, law enforcement, prosecution personnel, individuals with lived experience, and a range of
other governmental and non -governmental partners that work together to provide access to a diverse
set of services for trafficking victims and to seek justice on their behalf.
None of the following activities will be conducted whether under the Office of Justice Programs federal
action or a related third party action:
(1) New construction
(2) Any renovation or remodeling of a property located in an environmentally or historically sensitive
area, including property (a) listed on or eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places, or
(b) located within a 100-year flood plain, a wetland, or habitat for an endangered species
(3) A renovation that will change the basic prior use of a facility or significantly change its size
(4) Research and technology whose anticipated and future application could be expected to have an
effect on the environment
(5) Implementation of a program involving the use of chemicals (including the identification, seizure, or
closure of clandestine methamphetamine laboratories)
Additionally, the proposed action is neither a phase nor a segment of a project that when reviewed in
its entirety would not meet the criteria for a categorical exclusion.
Consequently, the subject federal action meets the Office of Justice Programs' criteria for a categorical
exclusion as contained in paragraph 4(b) of Appendix D to Part 61 of Title 28 of the Code of Federal
Regulations,
Questions about this determination may be directed to your grant manager or Environmental
Coordinator for the Office for Victims of Crime.

Reclassification of various statutory provisions to a new Title 34 of the United States Code
On September 1, 2017, various statutory provisions previously codified elsewhere in the U,S. Code were editorially

cooperative agreements), including many provisions previously codified in Title 42 of the U.S. Code.
Effective as of September 1, 2017, any reference in this award document to a statutory provision that has been
reclassified to the new Title 34 of the U.S. Code is to be read as a reference to that statutory provision as reclassified
to Title 34. This rule of construction specifically includes references set out in award conditions, references set out in
material incorporated by reference through award conditions, and references set out in other award requirements.

Withholding of funds: Research and evaluation independence and integrity
The recipient may not obligate, expend, or draw down any award funds until: (1) it has provided to the grant manager
for this OJP award information regarding research and evaluation independence and integrity in accordance with the
detailed instructions in the program solicitation, (2) OJP has completed its review of the information provided and of
any supplemental information it may request, (3) the recipient has made (or agreed to) any adjustments to the award

Award Condition Modification (ACM) has been issued to remove this condition.
If this award is a "discretionary" award (i.e., not an award under a statutory "formula" program), the recipient
understands and agrees that if it does not provide an adequate research and evaluation independence and integrity
submission (as determined by OJP), or if it fails to implement (as determined by OJP) any safeguard included in its

that more restrictive condition apply): The recipient may not drawdown more than 10% of the award. Pre -clearance
obligations, expenditures, and drawdowns may be disallowed if not in compliance with program requirements,
The recipient should be judicious in using award funds prior to budget clearance. Generally, OJP expects that
recipients (depending on the specific project scope) may need to advertise for award -funded positions, pay personnel
and fringe benefits for positions budgeted under the award, plan for project activities, attend training and pay training -
related travel needed to begin the project, and engage in other limited activities conducted by recipient staff (i.e.,
generally not requiring a subaward or procurement contract under an award).
OJP will issue an Award Condition Modification upon budget clearance.
55
The recipient may not obligate, expend, or draw down any award funds for indirect costs, unless and until either -- (1)
the recipient submits to OJP a current, federally -approved indirect cost rate agreement, or (2) the recipient determines
that it is eligible under the Part 200 Uniform Requirements to use the "de minimis" indirect cost rate described in 2
C.F.R. 200.414(f), and advises OJP in writing of both its eligibility and its election.
The financial review of the budget for this award is pending. if the OJP Office of the Chief Financial Officer (OCFO)
determines as part of its financial review that the recipient already has submitted the documentation concerning
indirect costs described above, this condition will be released through a Grant Award Condition Modification (ACM)
upon completion of the OCFO final budget review.
If the OJP OCFO instead determines as part of its financial review that the recipient has not yet submitted the required
documentation concerning indirect costs, this condition will not be released until OJP (including its OCFO) receives
and reviews a satisfactory submission.

FIRST AMENDMENT TO FY 2023 ENHANCED COLLABORATIVE MODEL TASK
FORCE TO COMBAT HUMAN TRAFFICKING MEMORANDUM OF
UNDERSTANDING
THIS FIRST AMENDMENT to the above -referenced agreement is entered into on August 20,
2024, by and between the City of Anaheim, ("Anaheim"), a charter city and municipal corporation
organized and existing under the Constitution and laws of the State of California ("Anaheim").
and the City of Santa Ana, a charter city and municipal corporation organized and existing under
the Constitution and laws of the State of California ("Santa Ana").
RFd TTAT.0
A. On May 14, 2024, the parties entered into the FY 2023 Enhanced Collaborative Model Task
Force To Combat Human Trafficking Memorandum Of Understanding, Santa Ana Agreement
No. N-2024-160 ("Agreement"). The Agreement is still in effect and expires on September 30,
2026.
B. The Anaheim Police Department applied for the FY 2023 Enhanced Collaborative Model
Task Force to Combat Human Trafficking Grant. Anaheim was awarded $750,000, and the
Santa Ana Police Department has been allocated a subaward in the amount of $75,000 as a
sub -recipient under this grant. The grant is anticipated to continue to fund the OCHTTF from
October 1, 2023 to September 30, 2026.
C. The Memorandum of Understanding from the Anaheim Police Department inadvertently
omitted the grant amount to be subawarded to the Santa Ana Police Department. The First
Amendment specifies the amount of the subaward as $75,000 and also provides the federal
grant requirements associated with this subaward. The parties would now like to amend the
Agreement by incorporating Exhibit C, attached, Notification of Subrecipient Award, which
specifies the amount of the subaward to the Santa Ana Police Department as $75,000 and
provides the federal grant requirements associated with this subaward.
The Parties therefore agree:
1. The Agreement, is hereby amended to include the terms and conditions in Exhibit C,
Notification of Subrecipient Award, reflecting the subaward amount of $75,000 and providing
federal grant requirements
2. Except as modified by this First Amendment, all terms and conditions of the Agreement shall
remain in full force and effect.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Amendment to the Agreement on
the date and year first written above.
