Description

The MMIR (Missing and Murdered Indigenous Relatives) Healing & Prayer Run is a run at your own pace and place. You can run, walk, bike, hike, basically, any movement anywhere. Our mission is to be in solidarity with Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls, Two-Spirits, Relatives, grieving families, and individuals working on the front lines to end this epidemic of violence against our Indigenous relatives.  We will run in prayer and healing as a community as we honor those who have gone missing or murdered.  

This year, we are working with The Darlene Law Firm to raise funds for specific MMIR families, agencies that work directly with families and to the Law Offices of Darlene Gomez MMIWR Fund.  Darlene Gomez is a New Mexico based attorney who has successfully practiced for 20 years in State Courts, Federal Courts and numerous Tribal Courts.  Darlene works pro-bono on MMIWR issues and continues to use 95% percent of her personal funds to do so.  Currently, she represents 18 MMIR families.  For more information, go to our donation page or visit http://www.dargomezlaw.com
