Today we were visited by Fred Alvarez Jr., great grandson of Narciso Alvarez, who built the building where our office is located, he shared that he and his family lived a block away and spent many holidays in the Alvarez house. If you haven’t checked out City of Las Cruces’ oldest neighborhood this weekend is your chance with tons of events like the Pachanga at Klein park and Hispanic Heritage Month in the Original Townsite
We honor our history, take care of our community and fight for what is right!

Today, on the National Day of Remembrance for US Indian Boarding Schools, we honor the Native children who were taken from their families and communities, the children who never returned home, the survivors who endured these institutions, and the generations who continue to carry their impacts

For generations, Indian boarding school policies sought to forcibly assimilate children by separating them from their families, languages, cultures, identities, and way of life.

The US Department of the Interior has identified 417 federal Indian boarding school institutions across 37 states or then-territories. Its investigation has documented at least 973 child deaths and 74 marked or unmarked burial sites at 65 school sites

These are more than numbers. They represent children, families, communities, and generations whose stories deserve to be remembered.

September 30 is also recognized as Orange Shirt Day, reminding us that Every Child Matters and calling us to honor survivors, descendants, families, the children who never made it home

The work toward truth and healing continues. Efforts such as the proposed Truth and Healing Commission on Indian Boarding School Policies seek to further investigate and document this history, understand its lasting impacts, and advance recommendations for healing and accountability

At CSVANW, we know that acknowledging historical trauma is connected to creating safer futures. Breaking cycles of violence also means confronting the systems and histories that disrupt Native families, communities, cultures, and ways of caring for one another.

Today and every day, we hold our survivors, ancestors, and relatives close.

We see you. We honor you. We remember you.
Wear orange.
Learn the history.
Listen to survivors.
Support Native-led healing.
Remember the children.
