Tomorrow The Moose Hide Campaign invites Administrators, Teachers, Support Staff and Students to participate in a grassroots movement to end violence against women and children. This Campaign was co-founded by Paul Lacerte and his daughter Raven in 2011 during a moose hunt on their traditional Carrie territory along the Highway of Tears in Northern BC- Where so many women and children have gone missing or murdered. You have the option to receive a moose hide pin to wear in support of ending the violence as well as participate in a virtual live stream that will include workshops.  We ask anyone who would like to participate individually or as a class to send an e-mail or go see Alyssa Atkins-Stokes, our Mi’kmaq Indigenous Student Support, in student services.

Do you know who this person is? If you do then let head on down to student services and let them know!!
