The second shows a white dress on which is written messages in red for the missing women, along with an easel nearby showing a collage of process pictures of the installation. The third shows red flowers and installations of red fabric outside of St. Joseph's College School front entrance.

National Day of Awareness for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls and Two-Spirit People

May 5 is the National Day of Awareness for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls and Two-Spirit People (MMIWG2S) in Canada.

On this day, the Toronto Catholic District School Board (TCDSB) honours and remembers all missing and murdered Indigenous women, girls and two-spirit people.

Also known as Red Dress Day, we wear red to draw attention to the missing and murdered Indigenous women, girls and two-spirit people and as a call for all Canadians to remember and to take action.
