In Canada, several measures have been put in place to support residential school survivors:
International Commission on Missing Persons (ICMP) Support: ICMP is helping address the legacy of residential schools, focusing on identifying and addressing unmarked burials at these sites. Source.
Federal Framework Initiatives: Canada's government is working on implementing a framework that includes the construction of a national residential schools monument. This initiative also provides essential mental health, cultural, and emotional support services for healing. Source.
Information Access and Advocacy: Reports like the Former Indian Residential Schools Environmental Scan help survivors access information about former school sites, supporting their needs for information and advocacy. Source.
These initiatives aim to acknowledge the past and support ongoing healing and reconciliation efforts.
