On September 30, Orange Shirt Day promotes awareness about the Indian residential school system still impacting Native American communities in the United States and Canada. Known in the U.S. as National Day of Remembrance for U.S. Indian Boarding Schools, the day honors the victims and survivors of the U.S. Indian boarding schools and recognizes the ongoing trauma resulting from federal Indian boarding school policy. Wear an orange shirt to show your support for those in the Native American community and those who did not escape the enduring impact of the trauma.
