Why Orange Shirts?

The Orange Shirt is a symbol of remembrance, respect, and awareness of the experiences of residential school survivors. By wearing orange, we honour survivors and commit to reconciliation and healing. YTC is proud to provide orange T-shirts at this event to encourage all participants to stand in solidarity.

Everyone is Welcome

This Open House is free and open to the public. We encourage families, community members, and partners to join us in a day of reflection, culture, and unity.
