Trouvay

What if you could find your ancestors & help bring home Missing and Murdered Relatives at the same time?

That's what's happening in Frog Lake First Nations.

Last year we partnered with the Frog Lake Library to begin the Kayas: Community DNA project.

In Phase 1 community members explored their family trees and learned the basics of DNA testing.

Next week in Phase 2, community members will interpret their results to find family & learn how they can share their DNA to help bring home The Missing.

Stay tuned for the incredible stories to come of a community centered on finding truth 🤍
