Today we honour Residential School Survivors, their families, and communities, and recognize the lasting impacts of Canada’s Residential School system.

We, as many other Canadians, are hoping to deepen Canada’s understanding of the intergenerational effects of residential schools and to reflect on their enduring legacy as part of the ongoing journey toward truth, healing, and reconciliation. 💛

The last Wednesday of each September has been designated as Rowan’s Law Day to help raise awareness about concussion safety.

Rowan Stringer was a high school rugby player in Ontario, who aspired to become a nurse. Tragically, Rowan passed away from Second Impact Syndrome at the age of 17 in 2013 after suffering multiple concussions within the same week without informing parents or coaches. Four days prior to her final injury, Rowan was tackled and landed on her head and neck. After Rowan passed away, her family donated her brain to research at the UNITE Brain Bank.

Her legacy lives on today through Rowan’s Law, which mandates annual concussion education for athletes, parents, coaches, and team officials in Ontario.
