SUMMARY:Every Child Matters - Orange Shirt Day!
DESCRIPTION:What is Orange Shirt Day? \nOrange Shirt Day is an annual event where Indigenous and non-Indigenous people come together in the spirit of hope and reconciliation to honour former residential school students\, their families and communities. We consider the impacts of the policies and actions of the Government of Canada and the churches that operated the schools. \nOrange Shirt Day began in Williams Lake\, BC in 2013 at the St. Joseph Mission (SJM) residential school commemoration event at which survivor ​Phyllis Webstad​ told the story of her shiny new orange shirt taken away from her on her first day of school at the Mission. \nOrange Shirt Day occurs in early Fall because this is the time of year when children were removed from their families and forced to attend residential schools. The day inspires Canadians to take part in anti-racism and anti-bullying initiatives at school and work. \nThe residential school era began in the early 1870’s\, with the last school closing in 1996.  More than 150\,000 Indigenous\, Métis and Inuit children attended these schools. There are an estimated 80\,000 survivors living today.
