Truth and Reconciliation Week is an opportunity to listen, learn and deepen our understanding of the history and ongoing impacts of the residential school system.

This year’s theme, Taking Truth to Action, encourages us to build on that understanding by carrying what we learn into meaningful action.

Throughout the week, the National Centre for Truth and Reconciliation is offering free educational programming, including public Lunch & Learn webinars from September 21–25.

Today is Walk a Mile in a Ribbon Skirt Day.

What began as a movement in response to discrimination has grown into a celebration of the strength, leadership and contributions of Indigenous women, matriarchs, Two-Spirit people, families and allies.

Members of our Reaching Home team are wearing their ribbon skirts today and will be joining this evening’s 6th annual celebration and Walk for Reconciliation.

Join us from 5–7 p.m. at Edmonton City Hall, 1 Sir Winston Churchill Square.
