Sacred Earth
SECWEPEMC & NUXALK | PACIFIC COAST OF BC
Sacred Earth is an Indigenous-led non-profit that advances a Just Transition. For Sacred Earth, a Just Transition means moving towards climate solutions that center Indigenous rights, cultural resilience, healing from colonization, and ecological balance for human and non-human kin. Our four leading pathways are: (1) Climate Solutions and Clean Energy Infrastructure, (2) Healing Justice, (3) Education and Training, and (4) Policy and Advocacy.
“Sacred Earth honours residential school survivors and the harms of the Indian residential school system on our families and communities by decentralizing colonial systems and empowering Indigenous self-determination.
We embody healing justice in our work as a return to ancestral ways of knowing and being that prioritize relationships and wellbeing.
Truth and reconciliation reminds us that healing is collective and requires settlers, newcomers, immigrants, and Indigenous peoples to come together to create a future that upholds all 94 TRC Calls to Action.”

Orange Shirt Society
BASED IN THE LANDS OF THE T’EXELCEMC | NATIONWIDE
The Orange Shirt Society was formed to create awareness of the individual, family and community inter-generational impacts of Indian Residential Schools with the purpose of supporting Indian Residential School Reconciliation and promoting the truth that EVERY CHILD MATTERS.
“When I got to the Mission, they stripped me, and took away my clothes, including [my] orange shirt! I never wore it again. I didn’t understand why they wouldn’t give it back to me, it was mine! The color orange has always reminded me of how my feelings didn’t matter, how no one cared and how I felt like I was worth nothing. All of us little children were crying and no one cared.”
