National Day for Truth and Reconciliation - Orange Shirt Day September 26

The Orange Shirt Day movement was started by Phyllis Webstad, a member of the Stswecem’c Xgat’tem First Nation and former Residential School student, to honour Survivors and Intergenerational Survivors, and to remember those children who never made it home. Orange Shirt Day is an opportunity for people of all ages, backgrounds, and cultural identities to engage with the ongoing fallout from the Residential School system.
