Today, September 30th, Grandview Kids Foundation observes Canada's 3rd National Day for Truth and Reconciliation.

Today, we stand in solidarity and support of the Indigenous Peoples of Canada. National Day for Truth and Reconciliation is a time to reflect on the systemic and historical unjust treatment of our Indigenous brothers and sisters throughout Canada. It is a day to listen, remember, and take action.

Below, Grandview Kids Foundation has compiled a list of resources to learn about, and support, the important stories and history of Indigenous individuals and families throughout Canada. By engaging with each of these pieces, you can learn about how you can participate and take action as an advocate for the fair treatment of Canada's Indigenous Peoples.
