Details of Transfer Payment Programs (TPP)
Erratum
Subsequent to the tabling in Parliament and online publication of the 2012-13 Report on Plans and Priorities (which covers the time period from April 1, 2012-March 31, 2013), Public Safety Canada determined that the Transfer Payment supplementary table for the First Nations Policing Program contained a minor mistake in the English version.
The 'Total contributions' amount under 2013-14 planned spending was incorrect. It should have indicated '$105,283,148 ' and not '$120,283,148'.

Description: Crime prevention is a key component of the federal government’s approach to reducing crime. The program’s goal is to develop and disseminate practical knowledge of what works to reduce offending among those most at risk such as children, youth and Aboriginal Canadians who present various risk factors, and to prevent the commission of specific crimes such as youth violence, drug-related offences, and hate crimes. The program provides federal leadership on the development of crime prevention strategies, policies and programs that are evidence-informed, responsive, and appropriate to community and regional needs. The program provides funding through time-limited grants and contributions to community-based organizations, other levels of government, and academia to support the implementation of targeted interventions, and the dissemination of knowledge and practical tools. The program fosters increased coordination and integration of crime prevention policy and programs federally, and with the provinces and territories, as well as the identification of emerging priority issues and orientation of funding programs
Expected results:
- Reduced offending among targeted populations (youth at-risk, Aboriginal communities, and high-risk repeat offenders)
- Increase in the Canadian body of knowledge related to crime prevention
- Reduced incidence of hate-motivated crime
