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.

Advancing period equity: Mobilizing communities through advocacy
WP240054
Through this 20-month project, The Period Purse will build its capacity to advance gender equality. It will address the gap in research of who experiences period poverty and how period poverty presents in communities experiencing period poverty; identify needs and trends in period poverty across youth demographics; and identify the barriers and limitations to creating period-positive spaces while generating productive conversations around menstrual equity with various decision makers and policy developers. The project will include the development of an advocacy strategy and toolkit informed by people with lived experience; strengthening community engagement strategies; and delivering training on advocacy and engagement strategies to equip staff, volunteers, and the Board of Directors to advance system change for menstrual equity.

Refining & Decolonizing Our Practices
WP240134
Through this 20-month project, Survivor's Hope Crisis Centre (SHCC) will build its capacity to advance gender equality. It will address the organization’s policies, procedures and funding practices. The project will include developing and revising policies and bylaws to align with GBA+ and applicable legislation and acts on Indigenous, queer, and people with disabilities needs. To do so, the organization will establish and advisory committee and will focus on the intersections of survivors of sexualized violence as well as making recommendations and informing of gaps by conducting needs assessment to aid them in continuing healing and equality. The activities will also equip the organization to secure sustainable funding through staff trainings and build network and improve partnerships with individuals, groups and agencies that share an interest in advancing equality for women, sexual violence survivors, and gender diverse individuals. By the end of the project SHCC will have created policies and procedures that are anti-oppressive, inclusive, and decolonized and will have obtained the tools and knowledge to help build their organizational credibility and financial capacity.
