Missing Voices: 40 Indigenous People Still Unaccounted For in Montana

In Montana, the crisis of Missing and Murdered Indigenous Persons continues to unfold. As of now, 40 Indigenous people, ranging in age from young teens to adults in their 70s, are still missing across the state.

Each of these individuals is more than a name or statistic; they are sons and daughters, siblings, parents, and friends, and their stories deserve to be told.

These names are only a portion of a growing list that continues to raise alarms within Indigenous communities and across the state. For many families, the pain of uncertainty only deepens as time passes without answers.

The disproportionate rates of missing Indigenous people in Montana and across the country highlight systemic gaps in response, awareness, and accountability. Advocates and family members continue to push for more resources, culturally competent investigations, and broader public attention.

Every one of these individuals is deeply missed. And until they are found, their families and their communities will keep searching and speaking out.
