Last year, President Joe Biden proclaimed May 5th as Missing or Murdered Indigenous Person鈥檚 Awareness Day as a way to bring attention to the ongoing crisis and help families find their lost loved ones. Recent hearings by a federal commission have begun around the country, with one scheduled for New Mexico in June.

Saturday October 22, marks the first 鈥淢issing In New Mexico Day鈥� created by the legislature to bring families of missing Indigenous persons together with law enforcement agencies to offer services and raise awareness. The event will take place at the Indian Pueblo Cultural Center hosted by the Department of Public Safety. 九色网 has more on how this day can help impact families with missing loved ones.
