Truth & Reconciliation

Monday is National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, and Orange Shirt Day.

It honours residential school survivors and children who never returned home, and encourages Canadians to wear orange signalling that Every Child Matters.

Several organizations are hosting events to mark the day, we have provided links below. 

We acknowledge that we live and work on the traditional territories of the Treaty 7 nations in Southern Alberta and the Métis Nation, Region 3.

Adoption Options offices will be closed to observe #NationalDayforTruthandReconciliation
