The Facebook page is currently active. The website connected to the FB is not active. They make posts about missing indigenous people. Those alerts are termed "Feather Alerts". Occasionally they will make updates to cases that they have posted about previously.
The MMIW NC website has a database that is not limited to, but is focused on native people that are located in or are from North Carolina. They are a small but mighty non-profit, and there are many family members and advocates in this group that work together to make a major difference. If this logo looks familiar, you might have seen it on our Partners Page.
Missing & Murdered Dine' Relatives (MMDR) is a nonprofit based in the American Southwest. They have several social media accounts, such as Facebook and Instagram, to go along with their website. They make regular posts featuring missing Dine' people as well as events they hold to raise funds. It's similar to what we do, but on a bigger platform.
This is a blog featuring MMIPeople from all over the continent. This is a writeup from the author:
First and foremost, my goal is provide visibility for cases that have gone unsolved and recent cases in which someone may be in danger. Secondly, my goal is to investigate the claim that Missing, Murdered, and Unidentified Indigenous Women is the "epidemic" many communities believe it to be. Thirdly, my goal is to humanize the issue of MMIW by putting faces, names, and case information to each individual. Fourthly, my goal is to consolidate important case information from multiple sources across the internet into one concise profile. Finally, my goal is to provide open source information regarding the prevalence of violence against Native women to be used by anyone for the purpose of researching or aiding this issue. My hope is that journalists, sociologists, anthropologists, criminal psychologists, law enforcement agencies, tribal entities and law makers can use this information to forward critical changes in policy and funding to find solutions to this issue.
The Navajo Nation Missing Persons Updates (NNMPU) is another FB group located in the American Southwest. They are currently active, and are constantly working on updating missing cases they know of within the Navajo Nation.
This article is from 2019, so any information in this will need more updated statistics. What we can say is, pay attention to the human emotion in this article. It takes place in New Mexico, but that isn't the only state where this issue is a problem.
"Nearly a quarter of New Mexico's trafficking victims are Native American- and women and girls are the least protected as the state struggles to address the problem." ~ Nick Pachelli of Searchlight New Mexico.
(This is still accessible as of 3/26/2025). The FBI has several lists for MMIP. The one attached to this page has basic stats and images of people. They are calling this list an "image repository."
Currently, we have found that searching on the FBI page for just MMIW will not get results. That is why we stress to researchers that they should know several acronyms for this issue in Native country.
From their website: "The primary purpose of posting case profiles to this page is to generate tips from the public about active cases that may help law enforcement give closure to victim’s families. Leveraging the power of web and social media, the public is encouraged to share case profiles through digital means.
BIA takes its responsibilities of protecting the identity of victim’s next of kin and family very seriously. While agents are working hundreds of cases, only those that next of kin and families have authorized are published here. Additionally, these cases are active investigations. While the Victim Services Program provides available case information to the next of kin/ family, the MMU cannot speak to the media or others about what is occurring within the investigation to preserve the confidentiality of the case.
If you have any information about these cases, or wish to make a referral, please contact us at any of the tip and information lines."
Aboriginal Alert is Canada's Indigenous Awareness Network.
This Facebook group has 38,000 members who share and update cases on MMIP from all over the United States and Canada.
On their group page: As we know there is an alarming number of missing and murdered indigenous people. This was created to help do our part to prevent further atrocities to our people and help protect them! Post all pics here immediately of missing people so we can work together as a nation to find/advocate for our missing people and bring them home!!!!!!
Public- Anyone can see who's in the group and what they post.
