National Day of Truth and Reconciliation-Children's Materials

The National Day for Truth and Reconciliation is observed September 30. The day honours First Nations, Inuit and Métis survivors, the children who never returned home, and the families and communities who continue to be affected by residential schools. Children can be trusted with the truth, so share these reliable and age-appropriate materials to start important conversations.
