The National Inquiry into Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls (MMIWG2S+) Final Report, Reclaiming Power and Place is available to review online.

The report shows the Indigenous human rights violations and abuses that have led to Canada's high rate of violence against Indigenous women, girls and two-spirit people. The report contains 231 calls to justice for government, organizations and all Canadians to address and act on in order to dismantle colonial and patriarchal practices that leave Indigenous women, girls and two-spirit people vulnerable to violence.

Please take the time to read the calls to justice here.

And for more information and resources please check out the MMIWG2S+ padlet put together by our Reconciliation Coordinator, Bobbi-Jo.

Join us online Wednesday May 5, 1:00-2:30 P.M. for a coffee and chat to learn about Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls and Two-Spirit People.
