Residential Schools Map
130 residential Schools operated in Canada between 1831 and 1996. More than 150,000 children attended, and many of them never returned home. Learn more on the National Centre for Truth and Reconciliation's Interactive Map.
Most of the residential schools were in the 4 Western provinces, with 25 schools located in Alberta.
If you need support, a National Residential School Crisis Line has been set up to provide support to former students. This 24-Hour Crisis Line can be accessed at: 1-866-925-4419.
