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.

Addressing the Gaps: Upscaling Intersectional Assessments
GV250003
Through this 15 - month systemic change project, Alberta Council of Women's Shelters will help advance women’s equality. The project will scale the assessment tool created in a previous project funded by WAGE to address gaps in supports for underserved groups experiencing gender-based violence (GBV). It will scale to rural and remote communities with a focus on Indigenous women and children. The project will address the need for intersectional, survivor-centred, trauma and violence informed assessment tools to support frontline service, and foundational education and training for service providers. To do so, the project will hold regional knowledge exchanges, evaluate readiness and identify community need, and implement assessment tools to rural communities
