What We Do

NWAC leads critical initiatives addressing the ongoing crisis of missing and murdered Indigenous women, girls, and Two-Spirit people while developing comprehensive violence prevention strategies. Our advocacy work amplifies the voices of families and survivors while pushing for systemic change and accountability. Through our human trafficking awareness programs, Safe Passage initiative, and specialized resource toolkits, we build community capacity to protect vulnerable individuals while supporting healing journeys. Our approach combines traditional knowledge with trauma-informed practices to create culturally relevant solutions that strengthen safety within Indigenous communities.
