SUMMARY:Recognizing the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation
DESCRIPTION:On September 30, YWCA Regina marks the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. It’s a day for our staff and community to spend volunteering, learning, and paying respect to First Nations, Métis and Inuit Peoples, guided by the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s own definition of reconciliation: awareness of the past, acknowledgement of the harm that has been inflicted, atonement for the causes, and action to change behaviour. \nYWCA Regina’s offices will be closed Wednesday, September 30, in observance of the day. Our 2024 Decolonization Framework commits YWCA Regina to Truth and Reconciliation Commission Call to Action 92 and to systemic change, not recognition alone. Residential schools are not ancient history: the last one closed in 1996, and roughly 150,000 children attended (ictinc.ca). The effects are still measurable today, including in child welfare and health outcomes for Indigenous adults who came through these systems (Statistics Canada, 2025). \nRegina-area events and learning resources are listed below for anyone wishing to take part:\n\nLove Medicine: MacKenzie Art Gallery Free Admission Day\nMacKenzie Art Gallery · 3475 Albert Street\nSeptember 30, 8:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. (exhibition runs to November 1)\nFree admission, sponsored by Rawlco Radio.\nLink: https://mackenzie.art/exhibition/love-medicine/ ( https://mackenzie.art/exhibition/love-medicine/ )\n\n \n\nRegina Orange Shirt Day\nmâmawêyatitân centre · 3355 6th Avenue\nSeptember 30, 8:30 a.m. – 1:00 p.m.\nPipe ceremony at 8:30 a.m., program at 10:00 a.m., lunch at 12:30 p.m.\nLink: https://otc.ca/event/regina-orange-shirt-day/ ( https://otc.ca/event/regina-orange-shirt-day/ )\n\n \n\nNational Day for Truth and Reconciliation Honour Walk\nThe Circle Project · Victoria Park\nSeptember 30, 10:00 a.m. – 1:00 p.m.\nCommunity honour walk and awareness event.\nLink: https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1cwQ9xjZPB/ ( https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1cwQ9xjZPB/ )\n\n \n\nBetty Ann Adam: The Real Life Story Behind Meadowlarks\nRegina Public Library · Central Library Mezzanine\nSeptember 30, 12:00 – 1:00 p.m.\nAuthor talk.\nLink: https://www.reginalibrary.ca/attend/programs/17312123 ( https://www.reginalibrary.ca/attend/programs/17312123 )\n\n \n\nTalking Circle: David Garneau, Dark Chapters\nRegina Public Library (Dunlop Art Gallery) · 2311 12 Avenue\nSeptember 30, 1:00 – 3:00 p.m.\n*Registration required\nLink: https://attend.reginalibrary.ca/event/17054138 ( https://www.reginalibrary.ca/attend/programs/17295024 )\n\n \n\nHave You Seen nikosis?
