Why Wear an Orange Shirt?
Recognition: To acknowledge the experiences of residential school survivors and their families.
Awareness: To educate oneself and others about the history and ongoing impacts of residential schools.
Solidarity: To show support for Indigenous communities and commit to the ongoing process of reconciliation.
Remembrance: To honor those who did not survive the residential school system and to ensure that such injustices are never repeated.
By wearing an orange shirt on September 30th, you participate in a national movement that recognizes the injustices of the past, honors the survivors, and supports the ongoing journey towards healing and reconciliation.
