The Blackfeet Community College on Saturday will unveil its improved, scalable portal and database for missing and murdered Indigenous people at an event at the University of Montana from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m., according to a news release.
Blackfeet Community College in 2020 received a $25,000 Department of Justice grant made possible through the Looping in Native Communities Act, for the creation of the database and portal. AT&T provided a full $25,000 match to support the project.
The database, which is accessible at www.mmipmt.com, is intended to provide families with a safe, judgment-free reporting system that compiles information and communicates with law enforcement.
