What is the Day of Mourning?

Every year on March 1st, the disability community comes together to remember the victims of filicide – people with disabilities murdered by their family members. Vigils are held on the Day of Mourning in cities around the world.

We will spend the evening remembering those in our community lost to filicide, and reading the names of those lost.
