Every October, YAWC organizes the Yukon Sisters in Spirit event. The purpose is to raise the issue of MMIWG in Yukon and northern BC, honour the victims and their families, and advance the calls for justice from the National Inquiry into MMIWG.
On Oct 2, we ask every government, business, and individual in Yukon and northern BC to participate. Hang a red dress on their premises in solidarity and at noon drum 42 beats for each Indigenous woman gone. Read more.
