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.
