During Indigenous History Month, we mark 6 years since the MMIWG2S Final Report. 231 Calls for Justice. Still unmet. This month is about more than recognition — it’s about action. #MMIWG2S #NoMoreStolenSisters #IndigenousHistoryMonth #BCNWA

Indig men and boys experience violence too. Their stories matter. Safety and dignity are rights for all Indig people. UNDRIP, the TRC, Calls for Justice, and the UN SDGs call for balanced, inclusive action rooted in care and accountability. #MMIWG2S #MMIMB #BlueJeanJacketDay
