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
Document consists of a report written by the Advisory Committee on Indian Work in the Alberni Valley.
Curatorial Comment
This document signals the end of the United Church's operation of the Alberni Indian Student Residence, and the Church's involvement in the residential school system altogether. It succinctly outlines the reasons for this move. Interestingly, two members of the Advisory Committee were Indigenous--a rare phenomenon in earlier times.
