Save Residential School Records

On May 25th, 2017, we will be appearing before the Supreme Court of Canada to advocate for the preservation of the IAP records, which are the largest collection of first hand accounts of residential schools. These records are due to be destroyed in 15 years.

In order to appear at the Supreme Court, we must raise $50,000 by May 25th 2017 to cover the cost of legal fees.
