The targeting and scale of missing Indigenous relatives is deeply concerning and rooted in historical injustices, marginalization, and socio-economic disparities. The connection between exploitation and the displacement of Indigenous communities underscores the importance of addressing the root causes of vulnerability. The Administration for Native Americans (ANA) and the Office on Trafficking in Persons (OTIP) have been coordinating with tribal leaders, Indigenous-led organizations, and state and federal partners to address the MMIP crisis.

This MMIP Action Plan updates the TAC’s earlier work and responds to recent White House directives. It also advances the whole of government commitment to addressing the MMIP crisis and sets out a multipronged approach to advance ACF’s work in preventing violence to Native people promoting healing from historical trauma. Importantly, it adopts responsive administrative processes such as equity, self-governance, and Indigenous knowledge, as well as identifying ways to leverage ACF’s grant funding, community engagement, and rulemaking authority.

This ACF plan of action is entitled Culture is Prevention: A Strength Based, Culturally Grounded Journey Toward Prevention, Intervention, and Healing (MMIP Action Plan or “MAP”). ACF recognizes that enduring change must be grounded in culture and self-governance. It is important for non-Native persons to understand that culture to Native American/Indigenous peoples is not merely a social preference, but an ancient cognitive map on how to be and a way of knowing. Moreover, hundreds of years across many generations have taught that culture-based activities and interventions improve Native/Indigenous health and wellbeing. Accordingly, this MMIP Action Plan blends cultural values with the four public health pillars of prevention, intervention, healing, and response to support optimal outcomes in the delivery of ACF programs and services to Native people and communities.

This guide identifies values and priorities that can foster trust and build the knowledge and skills of Tribes, their evaluation partners, and other stakeholders to conduct more useful and meaningful evaluations of child welfare programs.
