Budget 2018: $47.5M over 5 yrs + $9.5 annually
Funding is to expand the use of sport for social development in more than 300 Indigenous communities. Those needs form the specific targeted social outcomes of the SSDIC component:
- improved health, education, and employability; and
- the reduction of at-risk behaviour.
The SSDIC component is divided into 2 streams:
- Stream 1 – This stream is reserved for established provincial/territorial Aboriginal sport bodies.
- Stream 2 – This stream is open to Indigenous governments, Indigenous communities and other not-for-profit Indigenous and non‑Indigenous delivery organizations collaborating with an Indigenous organization(s).
