Across the country and even in our own backyard, Indigenous people are at a disproportionate risk of experiencing violence, murder, or going missing. Washington state ranks second highest in the nation for missing and murdered Indigenous women. Tacoma is seventh in the nation.
Pierce County is committed to addressing the persistent violence endured by our Indigenous families and communities. It’s time to break the silence and stop the violence.
