Description:The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is committed to improving the health and safety of American Indian Alaska Native (AIAN) people. CDC works to understand and address Missing or Murdered Indigenous Peoples (MMIP) issues by sharing data and violence prevention efforts.
CDC uses a shared risk and protective factors approach to understand root causes of violence. This means identifying and reducing the factors that increase the risk of violence (e.g., repeated or prolonged stress, diminished economic opportunities) and increasing the factors that protect or buffer people from violence (e.g., family connectedness, commitment to school). Understanding these factors can help prevent violence.
