The Missing and Murdered Indigenous​ Relatives Epidemic

MMIR Logo

Although American Indian women and girls make up just one percent of the state's population, from 2010 through 2018, eight percent of all murdered women and girls in Minnesota were American Indian.

From 27 to 54 American Indian women and girls in Minnesota were missing in any given month from 2012 to 2020.

Join the Minnesota Missing and Murdered Indigenous Relatives (MMIR) Office in our efforts to reduce and end violence against all indigenous people in Minnesota.​

The Missing and Murdered Indigenous Day of Remembrance — which is Feb. 14 each year — honors those Indigenous relatives who are missing from the lives of their loved ones. But they deserve more than just one day. That is why the Minnesota Missing and Murdered Indigenous Relatives (MMIR) Office unveiled the design of the new MMIR license plate during this year’s event in Minneapolis. Fees paid by drivers who obtain a plate will be put into the Gaagige-Mikwendaagoziwag reward fund.
