Missing Persons Community Action Toolkit (12.2022)
The purpose of the MMDR Missing Persons Community Action Toolkit is to aid families through the process of locating a missing relative, how to work with law enforcement, mobilize a community search/rescue with emergency management agencies, and to improve communication between all the involved parties.
The ultimate goal is to bring our relatives home!

Tribal Community Response When a Woman Is Missing: A Toolkit for Action
Coping with the disappearance of a loved one or community member is very difficult. The fact that American Indian and Alaska Native women experience higher rates of domestic violence and sexual assault than any other population of women in the United States has broad ramifications. One consequence of this reality is that domestic and sexual violence occurs on a spectrum of abusive behavior and can include abduction and murder. If a woman you know is missing, taking immediate action is very important. The quicker you respond, the faster she may be located and provided the help needed.

We Demand More: Partner Toolkit
MMIWG: We Demand More calls for government agencies to do better for missing and murdered indigenous women and girls. For years, law enforcement and government agencies have caused our community harm in the form of structural and institutional racism, among other things.

Missing and Murdered Indigenous People Toolkit Project
The primary goal of the Toolkit is to provide a resource toolkit intended for families, individuals and Tribal communities and governments that experience their tribal relatives either going missing and/or being murdered. UTFAV seeks consultants that have significant experience working in conjunction with tribal, federal and state law enforcement and criminal justice officials, advocates, and others working to enhance the safety of American Indians and Alaska Natives. It is expected that Consultants will be available for in person meetings, in addition to the review and editing of documents created in the development of the MMIP toolkit.
