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.

Changing the Workplace to Support Wellness of Indigenous Women
NA21866
This 27-month project will support a feminist response and recovery from the current impacts of COVID-19, through systemic change. Workforce Warriors Inc. will achieve this by educating employers and organizations on the importance of supporting Indigenous women and 2Spirit’s wellness in the workplace. Working with an Indigenous wellness leader, they will develop a national educational training program and the tools employers need to establish a culturally appropriate wellness infrastructure within their organization to support Indigenous women and 2Spirit’s safe and secure participation, reintegration and retention in the workplace. Workforce Warriors will utilize its national network of Indigenous organizations and community leaders to train employers, which will help support the development, implementation, national testing, and evaluation of the program and foster its sustainability onward.
