All are welcome to please come to the event and memorial march for MMIW, MMIWR in support to families, relatives, and community as we collectively march to honor lost loved ones.

Families and Community please bring photos of lost loved ones.

Our goal of the event & memorial march is to increase visibility of our Missing and Murdered, lost loved ones and to honor them-we request no other actions at the event or march that may takeaway or derail the focus from its intended purpose of honoring lost loved ones- Honoring MMIW, MMIWg2S, MMIWR

In solidarity with families of missing and murdered Indigenous women across Canada. For more information on the origins of the Women’s Memorial March, see https://womensmemorialmarch.
