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:

Curatorial Comment
Inscription on back reads “Mr. and Mrs. Ralph B. Hyde of Riverside hold up souvenirs from their years of missionary service in Vanderhoof, British Columbia, Canada. Mrs. Hyde’s necklace was made by an Indian girl at the Lejac Indian School, 30 miles from Vanderhoof. The moccasins were a gift of [crossed out text: Indian Chief] Sophie Thomas, Chief of the Stony Creek Band of “Carrier” Indians.”
