Today, staff at Centre In The Square wear orange to mark Orange Shirt Day and the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation.

We honour residential school Survivors, remember the children who never returned home, and recognize the lasting impacts on Indigenous families and communities.

May today be a reminder to keep listening, learning, and taking meaningful steps toward reconciliation throughout the year.

Every Child Matters. 🧡
