We welcome you to the Indian Residential School History and Dialogue Centre.
The records on our site emerge from the cultural and physical genocide that the Canadian government and churches conducted through the Indian Residential School System, including the ongoing impacts.
Bearing witness to these records may become overwhelming. If you are a Survivor or an Intergenerational Survivor and would like support, you can call the 24-hour National Indian Residential School Crisis Line at:

While the instructional activities are presented in a structured format, they are intended to be flexible in their use. Teachers can follow the sequence of lessons, they can use particular lessons or sections as stand-alone activities, or they can adapt the activities to meet their own curriculum planning requirements and the learning needs of their students.
The Indian Residential Schools & Reconciliation Gr. 10 Teacher Resource Guide (2015) is designed to help secondary students attain an understanding of the history of the relationship between Indigenous and non-Indigenous people over Canada’s history and engage young people to take part in the journey of reconciliation. Although it focuses on grade 10, the guide can be applied to other grade levels and can be used in conjunction with the Indian Residential Schools & Reconciliation Gr. 11/12 Teacher Resource Guide"--publisher's website.
