N.S. – Halifax Regional Women’s Committee Meeting

-

The Halifax Regional Women’s Committee invites PSAC women in the Halifax area to a hybrid meeting on Tuesday, May 5, 2026.

May 5th is the National Day of Awareness for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls and Two-Spirit People (MMIWG2S). It is also known as Red Dress Day, where we wear red or display red clothing to honour and remember missing and murdered Indigenous women, girls and two-spirit people and to encourage one another to take action for change.

In recognition of this day, the meeting will be opened with a 30-minute talk from Krista Fennessey, the Cultural Support Navigator at the Mi’kmaw Native Friendship Centre.

We ask participants to wear red to honour victims of gender-based colonial violence.
