🧡 Today, on National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, we pause to honour the children who never returned home, the Survivors of residential schools, and the families and communities who continue to carry the impacts of this painful legacy.
We recognize that reconciliation is an ongoing journey of learning, listening, and meaningful action. This morning, we gathered to reflect on the truths that continue to shape the experiences of Indigenous Peoples, explore resources that deepen understanding of Indigenous history and cultures, and engage with the stories, perspectives, and creative works of Indigenous authors and artists.
While no single conversation or moment can encompass the work of reconciliation, education and awareness are important steps toward understanding. We encourage everyone to take time today and beyond to learn, reflect, and consider how each of us can contribute to reconciliation through our actions, relationships, and communities.
For those looking to continue their learning, the National Centre for Truth and Reconciliation offers resources, educational materials, and opportunities to deepen understanding of the history and ongoing impacts of residential schools: https://nctr.ca/
