Featured This Month
MMIP Day of Awareness (May 5)
May 5 honors Missing and Murdered Indigenous Peoples and the families and communities impacted. Native communities continue to face disproportionate rates of violence, with many cases remaining unresolved or underreported.
Urban Indian Organizations play an important role in supporting community awareness, providing services, and creating spaces for healing. Through education, visibility, and community-centered approaches, UIOs help ensure that Native voices are heard and that those impacted are not forgotten.
Resources
To support UIOs and partners in your outreach, we have included draft copy for your networks and a downloadable graphic. By raising awareness, encouraging prevention strategies, and promoting access to survivor-centered services, Urban Indian Organizations and communities can help build safer, healthier Native communities.

No more stolen sisters.
May 5 honors Missing and Murdered Indigenous Peoples and the families who continue to carry this loss. Native communities face disproportionate rates of violence, and every voice matters in keeping our relatives seen and remembered.
Why it matters: This day brings attention to ongoing gaps in data, response, and resources while uplifting the need for safety, accountability, and culturally grounded support.
