We honour Survivors and remember the children who never came home. 10 years after the TRC Calls to Action, much is still undone. At BCNWA, this history is close to us through family, community, and our office in Kamloops IRS. #NDTR #TruthAndReconciliation #TRC10Years #BCNWA

We honour lives lost, support families, and call for Indigenous-led, culturally safe solutions. Our work is guided by TRC Call 19, the MMIWG2S Calls for Justice, UNDRIP Article 24, and the UN SDGs. If you're grieving today, you're not alone. Resources: https://t.co/xRslqYxwoX 🕊️

Indig men and boys experience violence too. Their stories matter. Safety and dignity are rights for all Indig people. UNDRIP, the TRC, Calls for Justice, and the UN SDGs call for balanced, inclusive action rooted in care and accountability. #MMIWG2S #MMIMB #BlueJeanJacketDay
June 6 marks Blue Jean Jacket Day, a grassroots initiative to honour Missing, Murdered, and Exploited Indigenous Men and Boys (MMEIMB). We honour the strength of families and advocates who continue to raise awareness and push for justice.

During Indigenous History Month, we mark 6 years since the MMIWG2S Final Report. 231 Calls for Justice. Still unmet. This month is about more than recognition — it’s about action. #MMIWG2S #NoMoreStolenSisters #IndigenousHistoryMonth #BCNWA
