Red Dress Day is a day of remembrance and action to honour Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls, and Two-Spirit people (MMIWG2S). Each year on May 5, red dresses are hung in public spaces as a powerful reminder of the lives lost and the ongoing impacts of colonial and gender-based violence.

Tomorrow, Red Dress Day, is the day dedicated across Canada and around the world to honour Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls, Two-Spirit, and LGBTQIA+ (MMIWG2S+) people and to take action to end this centuries-old genocide.
