WHAT IS ORANGE SHIRT DAY?

As we prepare to honour the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation—also known as Orange Shirt Day—on September 30, the Southern Chiefs’ Organization (SCO) is sharing frequently asked questions throughout the month of September.

Today’s question is: What is Orange Shirt Day?

Answer: Orange Shirt Day is a grassroots movement. It raises awareness about the impacts of residential schools.

It takes place on September 30, which is now known as the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation.

This is a day to honour Survivors and their families, and to remember and commemorate the many children who did not return home from residential schools.

***
SCO is hosting the 6th Annual Orange Shirt Day Healing Walk and Pow Wow on September 30, 2026.

Attend the opening ceremony at 9:30 am at the Oodena Circle in The Forks in Winnipeg.

Afterwards, participants are invited to join a healing walk to the Canada Life Centre.
