On Wednesday the planning committee for the St. Joseph’s Mission Residential School Commemoration Project announced a series of events and initiatives that will take place in April and May to commemorate and create awareness and recognition of the residential school experience in the Cariboo.
The project aims to encourage, support and engage in a shared First Nations and non-First Nations dialogue on how to achieve reconciliation and support efforts by all those affected by the legacy of this residential school as they continue on their personal healing journey.
Two monuments will be unveiled — one at the St. Joseph Mission site and one in Boitanio Park.
