A Look Into Mics for the Missing Inc
OUR MISSION
Mics for the Missing Inc. (MFTMI) is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization whose mission is to spread awareness and advocate for missing Black, Indigenous, People of Color (BIPOC). MFTM tackles this urgent issue through collaborative, trauma-informed approaches, providing resources, support, and education.
MFTM aims to amplify voices, advocate for change, and advance prevention. MFTM utilizes the arts, education, and media through a diversity, equity, inclusion, and justice lens, promoting public awareness and safety.
"This issue is not new; every year, we see an increase of BIPOC going missing, and throughout it all, their cases receive disparate treatment from law enforcement and media alike. We cannot stand by while our people go missing in radio silence. Mics for the Missing is one unified voice created to drive media, law enforcement, communities, and other key stakeholders to take action today.”

Advocate & Amplify
Nearly 40% of all missing persons in the U.S. are People of Color. We believe every missing person should receive the resources and attention they deserve. Because that is not the case, we amplify our voices for the visibility and support of missing Black, Indigenous, People of Color (BIPOC).
We believe enhancing our resourcefulness and tenacity through community and safety networks is how we create change and bolster prevention. Although we are Massachusetts-based, we are working across the nation, advancing collective action to make a much-needed difference. The more we all know, the more we can develop solutions to address this growing crisis.
