About the Event
May 5th is National Red Dress Day and it was decided we will do a Inner City CARE Team walking up Jasper Avenue and checking in on community in honour of missing and murdered Indigenous women and girls, 2SLGBTQQIA people and men.
There will be a March at noon from Churchill Square to Beaverhill Park, we will start at 1 from E4C meet up point and see if everyone is ok.

This is the more physical version of Street Team.
You must be able to hike about 5 km and be prepared for some tricky inclines. Ideally you have access to a vehicle in case we want to go to more than one spot.
We are hiking in the River Valley looking for encampments. We will be pulling a wagon (or two depending on volunteers) filled with backpacks. If terrain is too much for wagons, we will need to carry backpacks into encampments.
**For winter months we will likely be visiting urban encampments (not located in the river valley, but around the city)
The mission is to find out what is needed for the next visit, and to gain the trust of these folks for the future.
