RAIN OR SHINE…
MMIWG2S+ AWARENESS WALK BEGINS AT 10 AM
Join Us in solidarity to honour our missing and murdered Indigenous Women and Girls this year by hanging a red dress at Abbotsford City Hall.
The Fraser Valley Métis Association in collaboration with the City Of Abbotsford wants to bring awareness to the over-representation of Indigenous Women and Girls within our justice system.
