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:

Description
Rev. James Scott and Alvin Dixon of the United Church of Canada give a presentation discussing their role in the journey of reconciliation, including the Church's apologies in 1986 and 1998 for their involvement in colonialism and the Indian Residential School system. They now try to put these words into action, and acknowledge the long journey of reconciliation that lies ahead.
