Grants and Contributions
About this information
In June 2016, as part of the Open Government Action Plan, the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat (TBS) committed to increasing the transparency and usefulness of grants and contribution data and subsequently launched the Guidelines on the Reporting of Grants and Contributions Awards, effective April 1, 2018.
The rules and principles governing government grants and contributions are outlined in the Treasury Board Policy on Transfer Payments. Transfer payments are transfers of money, goods, services or assets made from an appropriation to individuals, organizations or other levels of government, without the federal government directly receiving goods or services in return, but which may require the recipient to provide a report or other information subsequent to receiving payment. These expenditures are reported in the Public Accounts of Canada. The major types of transfer payments are grants, contributions and \'other transfer payments\'.
Included in this category, but not to be reported under proactive disclosure of awards, are (1) transfers to other levels of government such as Equalization payments as well as Canada Health and Social Transfer payments. (2) Grants and contributions reallocated or otherwise redistributed by the recipient to third parties; and (3) information that would normally be withheld under the Access to Information Act and the Privacy Act.

The Transitional School for Transformation: Socioculturally Reflective Models of Support
12814329
The Transitional School for Transformation: Socioculturally Reflective Models of Support is a three-year pilot project led by Youth Association for Academics, Athletics, and Character Education (YAAACE) offering educational supports and other individualized culturally responsive programming in the Jane and Finch area of Toronto to justice-involved youth, particularly Black youth. Examples of the programming to be offered include gang exit programs, substance abuse and mental health supports, educational training, and employment opportunities. As part of its project’s objectives, YAAACE will also aim to enhance cross-agency service coordination and collaboration for more effective synergies between the education, the justice system, and other institutions for better outcomes for these youth. The youth will be connected with case managers with relevant lived experiences to provide mentorship and guidance for systemic navigation.
