👊🏽 MALE ALLYSHIP: THEIR VOICES MATTER TOO

At the 3rd Annual United Natives MMIR Summit, we are dedicating space to an important conversation around Male Allyship.

Native men and young boys experience high rates of violence and homicide, yet their experiences and voices are often left out of broader conversations around MMIR. This crisis affects them too. Their families, communities, and futures are impacted, and their voices are essential to creating stronger solutions.

Being an ally means more than standing beside others. It means recognizing how violence affects men and boys, understanding how these issues intersect across our communities, and creating space for men to be part of prevention, awareness, healing, and action. 🤝🏽

We are honored to bring together:
