Relatives, we are happy to invite you to our upcoming event to stand in solidarity with Navajo families to honor their loved ones who may be missing or have lost their lives to violence. In recognition of May 5th as the the National Day of Awareness for MMIWG, the Missing & Murdered Diné Relatives task force will hold an online synopsis forum entitled “Understanding the Trials Navajo Families Face,” and is taking place on May 5, 2021 at 4pm (MDT). MMDR seeks to increase awareness of disproportionate violence experienced in Navajo communities by reclaiming power and embracing healing.

The voices of the families are critical in the movement to recover our missing relatives and they continue to demand justice for those whose lives were taken by violence. This fierce collective of family voices continue to advocate for their loved ones. We invite folks in the community affected by the missing and murdered crisis to join our space, and if you are comfortable, you are more than welcome to share your story. This event is to elevate the advocacy of MMDR families and bring awareness to this issue affecting Diné.
