May brought many powerful moments that helped shine a light on the tragically high number of Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and People. Far too many families have been impacted by this crisis. Thank you to all who have been working so diligently to bring awareness. We chose to dedicate our June blog to help keep the fire burning for those who are missing, and healing for those whose hearts ache for them.
There are great organizations working toward awareness, advocacy, and justice for missing persons, their families, and their communities. Although far from a complete list, here are a few of them:
- Rising Hearts
- Sovereign Bodies Institute
- National Indigenous Women’s Resource Center
- Not Our Native Daughters
For those of you impacted by the MMIWP crisis, know that we are thinking about you and praying for you and your loved ones. We hope this helps a little.
