National Day of Action for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls

October 4, is the National Day of Action for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls and 2SLGBTQ+ people (MMIWG). Today, across we honour the lives and legacies of the victims and survivors, the women, girls and 2SLGBTQ+ loved ones impacted by this tragic and on-going violence.

Today is a day that you use your voice to advocate for change, to support and comfort a loved one who may be struggling, or take the time learn more about the underlying causes of this terrible violence and the ways you can be involved in making a difference.

Today, as you observe a moment of remembrance for our sisters, we ask that you light a candle in your window to show your support and solidarity.

Share your thoughts on this national day of action and remembrance with your communities by using the hashtags #SISVigils and #MMIWG

We hope that you come together today, and all days, to call for action, change, justice and peace.
