The Moose Hide Campaign began as a British Columbia-born, Indigenous-led grassroots movement to engage men and boys in ending violence towards women and children. It has since grown into a nationwide movement of Indigenous and non-Indigenous people. All ages, genders, and backgrounds are invited to take part in Moose Hide Campaign activities.
