Community Gathering and Walk to recognize the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation

Everyone is invited to participate in the Community Gathering and Walk to recognize the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation.

As NDTR is on a Saturday this year, a decision was made in collaboration with Indigenous communities, ATC - Athabasca Tribal Council and the Regional Municipality of Wood Buffalo to hold a community gathering and walk on Thursday, September 28, ensuring that education and awareness are as widespread as possible, creating opportunities for local schools and youth to be involved.

The gathering begins at 10 a.m. at Kiyām Community Park.

Join us in solidarity, wear orange, and honour Residential School Survivors, their families, and their communities.
