Community Database Honouring Indigenous Women, Trans and Two-Spirits

No More Silence is creating a community run database documenting premature and violent deaths of Indigenous women/Two-Spirit and Trans in collaboration with Families of Sisters In Spirit, our community partner, The Native Youth Sexual Health Network and with the assistance of Dr. Janet Smylie and Conrad Prince of the Well Living House at the Keenan Research Centre.

It's time for community to build our own structures independent of government and institutional funding. The purpose of the database is to our honour our women and provide family members with a way to document their loved ones passing. If you would like a loved one's information included please get in touch via nomoresilenceorg@gmail.com.

Check out this radio interview with Audrey Huntley, co-founder of No More Silence and Krysta Williams of the Native Youth Sexual Health Network: Naming, understanding, challenging violence against indigenous women
