Join the Town of Bracebridge in recognizing the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation to honour the children who never returned home, the Survivors of residential schools, and all of their families and communities. We seek to understand the impact and intergenerational harm these schools have caused to Indigenous families and their communities and honour the First Nations, Inuit and Métis lives that were lost.
Join the Muskoka Indigenous Friendship Centre to tie orange ribbons in Memorial Park ahead of the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation to honour the hundreds of children who never returned home from residential schools.
The Muskoka Indigenous Friendship Centre is a membership directed non-profit organization mandated to improve the quality of life for Indigenous people in an urban environment by supporting self-determined activities that encourage equal access while respecting Indigenous cultural distinctiveness. They support Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples by promoting physical, economic, social, and cultural wellbeing through programs/services offered throughout Muskoka. W.A.L.K.—We Are Like Kin.
