In honour of the first observance of the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, we would like to share some resources to help you learn more as we reflect.

Currently we are reading; 5 Little Indians which chronicles the desperate quest of residential school survivors to come to terms with their past and, ultimately, find a way forward: https://www.cbc.ca/books/five-little-indians-1.5451966

We'll be glued to the tube on by watching CBC Gem's - Truth & Reconciliation Collection: https://gem.cbc.ca/collections/truth-and-reconciliation-collection

Learn more about the story of Orange Shirt Day: https://lnkd.in/e-8nD

Read the Truth and Reconciliation Commission Reports: https://nctr.ca/records/reports/#trc-reports

Learn about The Indian Act: https://indigenousfoundations.arts.ubc.ca/the_indian_act/

We will be donating to the following three organizations:

INDIAN RESIDENTIAL SCHOOLS SURVIVORS SOCIETY: https://www.irsss.ca/

ORANGE SHIRT SOCIETY: https://www.orangeshirtday.org/

VANCOUVER ABORIGINAL FRIENDSHIP CENTRE SOCIETY: http://www.vafcs.org/

It's all pretty heavy, so learn, reflect, observe and let's move forward collectively with love and support.
