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.

Coordinated Access to Support Exit (CASE)
HT20412
This 38-month project with the YWCA Halifax will develop and implement the Coordinated Access to Support Exit (CASE) model, a promising intervention practice to advance knowledge and enhance empowerment supports for at-risk populations and survivors of human trafficking in Nova Scotia. This will be achieved by building wrap-around case conferencing tables, by providing survivors with culturally-relevant, trauma-informed and responsive supports, by increasing access to safe housing, and by evaluating the efficacy of coordinated access as a meaningful community-based tool to combat human trafficking.
At the end of the project, the sector will have a new model of collaborative service provision for victims and survivors of human trafficking that is developed and tested. In turn, victims and survivors of human trafficking will have access to wrap-around supports to exit the sex trade, begin their healing and reintegrate into their communities.
The project will include an external evaluation.
The purpose of the external evaluation is to evaluate the promising practice(s) that was developed, tested and implemented during the course of this project. The evaluator will be external to the organization and will have experience and expertise in evaluation.
