In September 2024 the MDAG launched the Attorney General’s Missing or Murdered Indigenous People (MMIP) Task Force to address the high rates of violence against Indigenous people in the state of Michigan. This interagency collaboration brings together tribal, federal, and state and local prosecutors, law enforcement officers, victim advocates, and human services specialists to identify, develop, and implement solutions to the MMIP crisis.
The MMIP Task Force focuses on improving the investigation and prosecution of MMIP cases, bridging gaps in the law enforcement systems, and identifying best practices. By examining the factors that contribute to the vulnerability of Indigenous individuals, particularly women, children, and two-spirit people, the Task Force aims to develop a holistic, victim-centered, and culturally honoring approach to prevention, response, and support.
The 2026 Missing and Murdered Indigenous Persons (MMIP) Summit is being hosted by the Michigan Department of Attorney General's MMIP Task Force and the Michigan Human Trafficking Commission.
This two‑day statewide gathering brings together tribal, state, local, and federal partners (including law enforcement, prosecutors, victim advocates, service providers, tribal leaders, survivors, and community organizations) dedicated to improving Michigan’s response to MMIP and human trafficking.
Over two days, you’ll connect with partners from across Michigan for learning, meaningful dialogue, and collaboration centered on supporting Indigenous communities and advancing coordinated responses to MMIP and human trafficking.
