🧡 On September 30, join the National Centre for Truth and Reconciliation on Parliament Hill for Remembering the Children.
This national gathering honours residential school Survivors, remembers the children who never returned home and encourages reflection and reconciliation.

While the first school in Canada’s Residential School system opened in 1831, Canada introduced a commemorative day 190 years later.
The impacts of the Residential School system continue to be felt today by Survivors, their families, and communities.
