SVDN IRS Survivors: Voices and Memories (2026.08.14)

Your Story Matters

We are gathering stories of SVDN members who attended residential schools anywhere in Canada. These stories will be honoured in a community book, and through new commemorations. 

Your story does not need to focus on the time at residential school. We are interested in the whole person – your life, teachings and everything that came after. 

What would you want your grandchildren and great-grandchildren to know about you?

Both Survivors, and families of departed Survivors, are invited to share as much or as little as feels right.

This is your story, told your way, and your pace.
