Task Force on Community Investments

In early 2005 the Government of Canada created the Task Force on Community Investments (TFCI) within Human Resources and Social Development, the federal interlocutor with the voluntary sector. The objective of the TFCI is to examine federal policies and practices relating to the use of transfer payments and the funding of horizontal initiatives in support of community investments.

The Task Force will conclude its work in March 2007. It is anticipated that this work will result in more consistent, results-oriented funding practices across the federal government and a seamless, horizontal approach to supporting investments in communities.
