National Day of Action for MMIWG2S+/Sisters in Spirit Day

October 4 is the National Day of Action and Awareness for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls and 2SLGBTQIA+ People, also known as Sisters in Spirit Day. Indigenous women, girls and Two-Spirit people continue to face disproportionate rates of violence rooted in systemic racism, colonialism and gender-based violence.

This booklist offers resources to deepen understanding of the MMIWG2S+ crisis and inspire meaningful action toward justice, safety and healing.
