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.

Bridging the Gap: Exploring Forensic Evidence Self-Collection for Survivors of Sexualized Violence in Rural Communities

Agreement Number:

GV240268

Duration: from Mar 6, 2025 to Mar 31, 2027
Description:

This 25-month project aims to explore forensic DNA self-collection as an innovative solution to improve access to evidence collection after sexual assault in rural, remote, and underserved communities across Canada.

Aligned with Call to Justice 5.5 of the National Inquiry into Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls, the initiative will examine international innovations from Australia, the UK, and Kenya, as well as domestic practices involving ongoing self-collection methods. Stakeholder interviews across number of provinces and territories will gather insights from legal professionals, law enforcement, front-line organizations, First Nations leaders, and medical professionals. A survey targeting the general public, including survivors, will assess perceptions and feasibility of self-collection.

Key outputs include a draft forensic DNA self-collection protocol informed by literature, stakeholder feedback, and survey results. This protocol will be tested and refined through consultations and with healthcare providers.

The project will culminate in a public webinar to share findings and gather additional input, ensuring recommendations reflect diverse needs. The final report will synthesize findings, provide actionable recommendations, and contribute to advancing equitable and accessible evidence collection solutions for survivors of sexualized violence across Canada.

The supplemental funding will be used for in-person community engagement across the five identified regions of the project: Ontario, Yukon, Northwest Territories, Newfound and Labrador and Manitoba.
