Today, we recognize #OrangeShirtDay — honoring the Indigenous children taken from their families and communities and forced into residential schools, as well as the survivors, families, and communities who continue to carry the impacts of these systems. #EveryChildMatters
Orange Shirt Day grew from the story of residential school survivor Phyllis Webstad, whose new orange shirt was taken from her on her first day at residential school. Today, the orange shirt is a symbol of remembrance and the message that Every Child Matters.
As we reflect on this history, we recognize the importance of listening to Indigenous communities, acknowledging the lasting effects of policies that separated families and caused generations of harm, and continuing the work toward justice and healing.
