We call upon church parties to the Settlement Agreement to develop ongoing education strategies to ensure that their respective congregations learn about their church’s role in colonization, the history and legacy of residential schools, and why apologies to former residential school students, their families, and communities were necessary.
Why “COMPLETE”?
Each of the church parties to the Settlement Agreement have made commitments to ongoing education activities within their respective congregations and institutions.
