Protection Act of 2000 (22 U.S.C. 7105(b)(1)(B)). Grantees provide

demographics (e.g., age, sex, and country of origin), types of
trafficking experienced (sex, labor, or both), types of client
enrollment, types of services and benefits provided along with
aggregate information on the amount of money spent on each type of
service provided, the types of entities providing medical services, the
amount of money provided to those entities, the amount of money
expended on each type of client enrollment, types of partnerships
developed through the grant with subrecipients, and the types of
training and technical assistance provided to subrecipient
organizations or other partners.
