Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls, Trans, and Two-Spirit (MMIWGT2S)
Urban Indigenous Collective's
MMIWGT2S NYC+ Program
Led by Urban Indigenous Collective’s MMIP Task Force, the MMIWGT2S NYC+ Program addresses the crisis of missing and murdered Indigenous women, girls, trans, and Two-Spirit relatives through research, advocacy, and community engagement.
Honoring the stolen. Protecting the living. Building safety, visibility, and healing for our relatives.
We host an annual East Coast MMIP Summit and May 5th Day of Awareness Vigil, maintain a cross-border database, and manage an AI-powered policy tracker to monitor and advance legislation protecting Indigenous women and 2STGNC+ relatives.
Our advocacy led to the creation of New York City’s first BIPOC Missing and Murdered Task Force in 2023 — a milestone for community-led safety and accountability.
