September 30th is the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. Originally known as Orange Shirt Day, September 30th is a day that honours the children and families irrevocably impacted by Residential Schools in Canada. On this day, we acknowledge survivors, their families, and communities, as well as those who never made it home.
