May 5 is Red Dress Day, the National Day of Awareness for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls, Two-Spirit, and gender-diverse people.

Today, we honour the lives stolen, the families and communities who continue to seek truth and justice, and the Indigenous leaders, advocates, and grassroots organizers who have carried this work forward. The red dress is a powerful symbol of loss, remembrance, resistance, and the ongoing impacts of colonial and gender-based violence.

As social workers, we have a responsibility to confront the systems that perpetuate racism, sexism, and colonialism, and to support Indigenous communities in their demands for safety, sovereignty, justice, and accountability.

At CASW, we also recognize the role the social work profession has played in perpetuating colonial violence. We remain committed to reconciliation, accountability, and meaningful change.

May 5th is Red Dress Day, a National Day of Awareness for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls, and Two Spirit People.

Indigenous women, girls, and two-spirit people are missing and murdered at a much higher rate than non-Indigenous people. Red Dress Day is a call to raise awareness about the ongoing crisis of violence against Indigenous people.

Today and everyday, we honour all Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls, and Two Spirit people and stand in solidarity with their families.

Do you know the lighthouse theory? It’s that quiet reminder that you’re not meant to keep running into the storm just to pull everyone back to safety. You stay where you are, even when it feels lonely, even when you wonder if anyone is actually noticing your light at all. Because truth is, not everyone will see it, not everyone will come back for it, and some will drift away no matter how hard you shine. And it hurts, but maybe your role was never to chase people who are lost—it was just to stay steady, to keep shining even when no one claps for it, even when it feels like nothing is happening.

This is a challenging practice for many, including myself. I find it helpful to be outside watching the beautiful skies. No matter where I am.

Yes! It takes practice to set boundaries, both personally and professionally. When we are able to set them, it can help us feel lighter, more free, less anxious and more grounded.

A little reminder for you. 💜
