**Possible Triggers: Native American and Indigenous murder and harm, race theft, abusive relationships, suicide, race, class, gender roles and religion**

As of 2016, the National Crime Information Center has reported 5,712 cases of missing American Indian and Alaska Native women and girls. Strikingly, the U.S Department of Justice missing persons database has only reported 116 cases.  The majority of these murders are committed by non-Native people on Native-owned land.
