Grants and Contributions

The specific objectives of this funding opportunity are to:
• Contribute to the evidence base on standards or guiding principles for mental health and/or substance use health services across diverse settings;
• Enable a Learning Health Systems approach for the delivery of mental health and substance use health services for youth, where standards can be continuously measured and adapted to meet the needs of the populations served;
• Mobilize evidence to inform policy and decision-making on the development of pan-Canadian standards in mental health and substance use health;
• Facilitate effective and meaningful engagement of knowledge users in research related to standards to ensure the perspectives of children, youth, young adults, and their caregivers/ families, among others, are considered in the development pan-Canadian standards.

The objectives of ELCC are to improve programs and services for all Canadian children and their families by developing innovative approaches and sharing best practices that enhance the quality, accessibility, affordability, flexibility and inclusivity of ELCC programs and services across Canada.
This is accomplished through work with PTs in establishing a Canada-wide ELCC system, as well as supporting national and international projects and initiatives to help address ELCC data and research.

The objectives of the program are to:.•Support greater influence and control over Indigenous ELCC programs and services by Indigenous peoples;.•Improve quality and accessibility of Indigenous ELCC with an emphasis on cultural and language content;.•Support a more holistic and integrated system of quality ELCC services for Indigenous peoples; and.•Adapt and improve existing federal programs to be more flexible, adaptable and horizontal across federal departments as a first step prior to transferring control..

Early lab-scale decisions
will first be guided by simplified LCAs, but these will be quickly followed by
more detailed prospective analyses of potential environmental impacts that
integrate engineering models to capture expected economies of scale and
learnings. These will be complemented by an analysis of the manner in which
these materials may alter the material flows of plastics in the Canadian
economy, along with possible positive or negative repercussions on the
environmental performance of national and regional waste management, agri?food and energy sectors.

The objective of this position is to learn and understand our new technology and be a technology support system to our potentially thousands of vendors.

Normal aging and chronic disease can reduce our fine motor skills. However, sensitive outcome measures for assessing hand function and fine motor skills required for activities of daily living are lacking. This is impacting treatment development for late onset neuromuscular conditions affecting hand function in the elderly, such as Myotonic Dystrophy type-1 (DM1), because the lack of PAGE 4 sensitive outcome measures to monitor treatment efficacy is preventing industry investment in clinical trials for these conditions. This project will develop and test novel, sensitive, outcome measures to assess hand function in patients with neuromuscular conditions using the NRC’s bTrained software platform combined with wearable hardware. At the end of the project, a novel outcome measure (consisting of a suite of sensitive hand function assessment exercises on the bTrained platform) will be delivered and be ready for testing in the context of clinical trials. This study directly falls under the objectives of the AiP program by developing tools to facilitate drug discovery for neuromuscular diseases affecting the elderly, and thereby help elderly individuals to remain well and living independently in their homes.

This will be achieved by undertaking organizational learning to address key information gaps, and to create knowledge-based resources that aim to increase understanding of Indigenous gender and sexual diversity and prevent sexualized forms of violence against Indigenous women and 2SLGBTQQIA+ people; expanding organizational networks through the formation of an Opokaa’sin-centred relationality network that will work towards advancing a Blackfoot vision of gender justice; collaborating on initiatives to drive change, including the development of Blackfoot gender relationality agreements and wise practices for government policies and community projects; and developing advocacy strategies in service of honouring, promoting, and supporting Blackfoot gender diversity and inclusion.
