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.

Switch Gears – Redefining Masculinity in Today's World
GV230315
Through this 30-month project, Big Brothers Big Sisters of South-West Durham and Northumberland will scale their Switch Gears mentorship program, which works with at-risk male youth to develop positive mental health, healthy masculinities, and positive relationships. This project will scale program delivery to youth at additional schools to address the need for increased male mentorship with the goal of decreasing rates of violence and abuse. The project will comprise increasing organizational capacity to deliver Switch Gears, consulting with GBV survivors, promoting and recruiting mentors, engaging school boards to identify new schools to receive the program, delivering Switch Gears to new schools, and evaluating the program to ensure effectiveness. Big Brothers Big Sisters of South-West Durham and Northumberland will publish findings regarding the efficacy of the program to share information on the promising practice with others so that they may replicate it or expand upon it.
The supplemental funding will be used to: increase BBBS’s organizational capacity by delivering the Switch Gears mentorship program, leveraging learnings to date through evaluation tools and refined data collection practices, deliver the Switch Gears program to schools by securing community-based spaces closer to participant neighborhoods, thereby increasing accessibility and reducing barriers to participation and mobilize knowledge by documenting participant and mentor stories, capturing programming activities, and projecting outcomes.
