Student Absenteeism is a growing problem, with some Winnipeg North End schools with rates exceeding 70%. Indigenous and inner city students are disproportionately affected, and a lack of effective provincial action has failed thousands of children. ABSENT documents this failure, while amplifying the voices of educators, parents, youth and community leaders calling for immediate reform.
