National Day for Truth and Reconciliation
The National Day for Truth and Reconciliation honours the survivors of residential school, as well as their families and communities.
We recognize and commemorate the history and ongoing legacy of residential schools and the trauma experienced by the community. We encourage everyone to wear an orange shirt today while learning and reflecting on the history of Indigenous peoples.
For those who need support, a crisis line is available for National Residential School Survivors at 1-866-925-4419 or for non-Indigenous people, the Crisis Services Canada is available at 1-833-456-4566. These crisis lines are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
