Support NAD on Orange Shirt Day. Calling on Dartmouth Student Groups to Support Native Americans at Dartmouth and Wear Orange on this Friday, September 30th.

What is Orange Shirt Day?

This Day is in honor of the Every Child Matters Movement, which recognizes an era in United States History, lasting until 1978, and Candian Hisotry, lasting until 1996, when Indigenous children were ripped from their families and taken to Residential/Boarding Schools aimed to strip them of their indigenous culture.

Every Child Matters.
