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:

Residential school survivors holding protest signs.
Curatorial Comment
This photograph is from the day on which St. Andrew's United Church in Port Alberni gave an apology to the Nuu-Chah-Nulth peoples for the residential schools experience. Of the many nations that make up Nuu-Chah-Nulth peoples, the Ditidaht was the one First Nation that refused to accept the apology and to bear witness.
