No More Sisters Stolen!

No More Sisters Stolen!

Indigenous women represent 14 per cent of all homicides,

despite only making up five per cent of all women in the country.

This project is aimed at producing an understanding and awareness of how dance can be utilized as healing practice for both Indigenous survivors of violence and their families, as well as those impacted by the crisis of MMIWG.
