The Town of Aurora has installed Every Child Matters rink boards in each of its five arenas as a commitment towards genuine and meaningful reconciliation. On March 21, the Every Child Matters Rink Board will be unveiled at the Stronach Aurora Recreation Complex (SARC).
The Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada created 94 Calls to Action to address the legacy of residential schools. The 94 Calls to Action cover issues such as child welfare, education, health, language, culture, media and more. In support of these calls to action, the Town recognizes the far-reaching and profound impacts of residential schools, and has created a space to provide a constant, visual reminder that Every Child does Matter.
