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.

Scarborough Youth ReStart Initiative (SYRI)
13779777
The “Scarborough Youth ReStart Initiative (SYRI)” is a trauma-informed, culturally responsive, rehabilitation and restorative justice program that aims to support Black and racialized youth aged 12–17 in Scarborough who are involved with the criminal justice system, gang-involved and/or currently being dealt with under the Youth Criminal Justice Act (YCJA). Over three years, the program will directly engage 180 youth (60 per year) through structured restorative justice activities that provide meaningful alternatives to detention, foster accountability, and support long-term reintegration into the community. Additionally, it utilizes evidence-informed alternatives to detention and incarceration, focusing on personal responsibility, addressing systemic issues and community integration for youth violent offenders.
The program focuses on rehabilitation, reintegration, and accountability. It seeks to address the underlying social and systemic factors faced by racialized youth, such as poverty, racism, trauma, and community violence, that contribute to youth offending, while helping participants develop the skills, confidence, and support necessary to build positive, crime-free futures. Participants will be empowered to take responsibility for their actions, repair harm, and develop pro-social attitudes and life skills that promote lasting change.
