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.

Enhancing the Capacity of Violence Against Women Shelters and Transition Houses to Respond and to Recovery from COVID-19
NA21915
This 32-month project will support the capacity of violence against women shelters and transition houses to deliver essential programs and services in response to the ongoing health and safety crisis posed by the COVID-19 pandemic. It will enhance the ability of shelters and transition houses to adapt and re-design essential programs and services as necessary while responding to specific capacity and community needs. It will also enable shelters and transition houses to maintain operations both during and after the pandemic and continue to serve the needs of women, girls, LGBTQ2, and gender non-binary people experiencing violence to advance gender equality in Canada. Women’s Shelters Canada (WSC) will engage and consult with key stakeholders in order to implement a fair, transparent, and efficient process to distribute funding to shelters and transition houses across Canada, outside of Quebec. This funding aims to address the specific needs of shelters and transition houses and ensure they are better equipped to respond to local and emerging contexts, both during and after the pandemic. WSC will coordinate the gathering and consolidation of information from funding Recipients to determine how and to what extent the funding has impacted their organizational capacity to respond to and recover from the COVID-19 pandemic. Other activities may be undertaken, as needed, including the communication of results, dissemination of knowledge, and sharing of best practices among shelters and transition houses across Canada.
