Red Dress Day raises awareness about the issue of missing and murdered Indigenous women, girls, and Two-Spirit peoples. The display of red dresses symbolizes the loss and the call for justice and healing.

Here are some ways you can acknowledge and participate in Indigenous Red Dress Day:

  1. Wear a Red Dress: Show your support by wearing a red dress or a red accessory. This simple act can spark conversations and spread awareness about the issue.
  2. Educate Yourself and Others: Learn about the history and current issues facing Indigenous women and girls. Share this knowledge with your friends, family, and social media followers.
  3. Support Indigenous Organizations: There are many organizations working to support Indigenous communities and address the issue of missing and murdered Indigenous women. Consider donating to these organizations or volunteering your time.
  4. Attend a Vigil or Event: Many communities host vigils or events on Indigenous Red Dress Day. Attending these events can show solidarity and support for Indigenous communities.
  5. Use Your Platform: If you have a platform, use it to spread awareness about Indigenous Red Dress Day. This could be a blog, a social media account, or even just your voice in everyday conversations.

Remember, it's not just about acknowledging the issue on Indigenous Red Dress Day, but also about continuing to support and advocate for Indigenous communities throughout the year.
