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.

Improving Collaboration: Shelters and Youth Protection for Immigrant Mothers Who Are Survivors
GV230341
Through this 30-month project, the Maison pour femmes immigrantes (MFI) will conduct research that will help improve gender-based violence services for at-risk groups. The MFI will address collaborative practices between shelters and youth protection services so that services better meet the needs of immigrants, refugees, and newcomer mothers who are survivors of domestic violence and whose children have been reported to youth protection services. To achieve this goal, the project will include a literature review, followed by data collection through interviews and focus groups. The data will be analyzed, and a response and knowledge mobilization tool will be developed and shared. The MFI will organize days for reflection and action to inform others about the research findings.
This research is in line with the theoretical and methodological approach of participatory action research, which centres the subjects in knowledge production and action on the issues that affect them. Accordingly, a group of co-researchers consisting of immigrant women who have survived domestic violence and academics will be established to guide the research process. The research will also engage with shelter and youth protection workers through an advisory committee. Engagement with mothers and workers in the sector will only begin once the project has received ethics approval.
