In partnership with Reconciliation Lethbridge Advisory Committee and the Wellness Program—Blood Tribe Department of Health Inc., the City of Lethbridge is hosting a virtual memorial to honour Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls (MMIWG).
On Monday, February 14 from 5 – 8 p.m., photos and names will be projected on the side of City Hall (Stafford Drive side) to honour loved ones who have not come home. Residents who wish to see their loved one included in the memorial can reach out to Indigenous Relations Specialist, Echo Nowak (echo.nowak@lethbridge.ca) to organize their photo and details.
