On February 13th, Ottawa educators Kim Bruton and Amanda Anderson presented RSEKN partner, Project of Heart, at Connaught Public School’s Evening Towards Reconciliation. Check out POH’s most recent blog about this important event promoting reconciliation. 

Project of Heart brings together community members and their families to:

  • Examine the history and legacy of Indian Residential Schools in Canada and to seek the truth about that history, leading to the acknowledgement of the extent of loss to former students, their families and communities
  • Commemorate the lives of the thousands of Indigenous children who died as a result of the residential school experience.
  • Call Canadians to action, through social justice endeavors, to change our present and future history collectively
