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 impact of COVID-19 on abused immigrant women: Addressing systemic barriers with accessing protection remedies
GV21094
This 30-month project will develop, pilot, and disseminate a culturally sensitive Emergency Intervention Orders (EIO) process that includes knowledge mobilization and associating tools for newcomers and immigrant women in Southeastern New Brunswick to address the root causes of gender-based violence. Beausejour Family Crisis Resource Centre will achieve this by engaging with cross-sectoral partners through advisory committees, by conducting local scans and needs assessment, by developing new culturally sensitive EIO material and tools, and by implementing a culturally sensitive EIO process for rural immigrant female victims of sexual violence.
At the end of the project, the organization will have developed a promising practice that will increase access to EIOs for rural immigrant women, enhance knowledge and confidence from EIO assisters in their ability to provide a culturally sensitive EIO process, and meet the needs of immigrant and newcomer women and decrease barriers to accessing EIOs.
Beausejour Family Crisis Resource Centre will engage with various key stakeholders to ensure outcomes are achieved and that partners are invested in the project’s sustainability. Key partners will include women with lived experience, government agencies, private industries, and community-based organizations. Members of the Francophone minority community will play an active role in the various phases of the project, including committee membership, consultation and product development, knowledge exchange activities for assisters, as well as project evaluation. Outcome measurement tools will be created with the help of an external evaluator at all stages of the project.
