As our friends at Kinvia (formerly Canadian Feed the Children) say, Reconciliation is not a destination or a single day of reflection. It is an ongoing journey that requires curiosity, courage, action, and a willingness to learn from one another.

We invite you to join us in honouring the Survivors, families, and communities who continue to live with the impacts of the Residential Institutions (Schools) and reaffirm that Every Child Matters.
