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.

Collaborative Cross-Sectoral Strategies Advancing Equality for Expectant Homeless and At-Risk Youth, Women and their Babies
AB21273
This 29-month project will support a feminist response and recovery from the current impacts of COVID-19, through systemic change. Emma Maternity House Society will achieve this by forming an advisory committee comprised of key multi-sectoral stakeholders; engaging community leaders, service providers, government officials, and women with lived experience from across Alberta in discussions on the disproportionate impacts of the pandemic on homeless pregnant women; compiling and analyzing research and stakeholder feedback to develop recommendations and strategies for combating identified predominant barriers to equality; and conducting a symposium to broadly share project findings, highlight best practices, and mobilize support across sectors for resources, policies, and practices that are inclusive and take an intersectional approach.
At the end of the project, the organization will have contributed to addressing systemic barriers by advancing inclusive policies and practices, increasing networks and collaboration to accelerate systemic change, and addressing persistent harmful gender norms and attitudes to support women’s equality.
Women with lived experience will be involved in each component of the project. The project will culminate with influential stakeholders and decision makers from across Alberta being brought together to advance solutions and formalize systemic change commitments to support at-risk pregnant youth and women towards a recovery from the impacts of COVID-19.

Collaborating to Support Survivors and Women at Risk of FGM/C in the Era of COVID-19
GV21850
This 29-month project will develop, implement, pilot and disseminate a community-based pandemic recovery model to address the root causes of gender-based violence. Women’s Health in Women’s Hands will achieve this by 1) developing education and awareness-raising resources to add to a Toolkit for survivors of female genital mutilation/cutting (FGM-C) and healthcare & community service providers, including an online website with resources, 2) recruiting 15 participants with lived experience of FGM-C in order to create short videos/documentaries on the subject and raise awareness on the issue, 3) distributing updated Toolkit through different media platforms, and 4) delivering webinars and workshops to healthcare & community service providers on culturally-appropriate and trauma informed service methods.
At the end of the project, the organization will have developed a promising practice that increased the efficacy of the Toolkit for survivors, healthcare and community service providers with regards to FGM-C.
The project will engage more than 100 healthcare and community service providers and 5,000 survivors and their families on issues of gender-based violence and FGM-C. The effectiveness of the Toolkit will be documented through an ongoing evaluation.

Feminist Hub
ON21645
This 29-month project will support a feminist response and recovery from the current impacts of COVID-19, through systemic change. The Sexual Assault/Rape Crisis Centre of Peel will achieve this by engaging with the community and partner organizations to develop strategies and action plans to increase diversity in leadership positions and to address gender-based violence (GBV) in the Peel Region. Further, this project will engage with survivors of GBV to develop an advocacy campaign to raise awareness about discriminatory practices, policies, and laws and advocate for the adoption of more appropriate practices by the Peel Regional Police (PRP).
At the end of the project, the organization will have contributed to addressing systemic barriers by increasing networks and collaboration to accelerate systemic change, supporting positive distribution of authority, voices, and decision-making power, advancing inclusive policies and practices, and encouraging more equitable and effective sharing of resources to support women’s equality.
This project will engage with survivors of GBV, partner organizations, academic institutions, the Peel Regional Police, officials at the regional and provincial level, as well as politicians to raise community awareness, advocate for more appropriate policies and practices, and disseminate reports, strategic plans and action plans.
