Fundraising safely
- Use a fundraiser your family controls, and name one trusted person to manage it.
- Say clearly what the money is for, like search costs, travel, or a reward.
- Warn supporters about fake fundraisers using your loved one's photo, and report them to the platform.
- Never give money to anyone claiming they can find your relative for a fee.
Taking care of yourself
- Call or text 988 any time for emotional support.
- StrongHearts Native Helpline: 1-844-762-8483, call or text, for Native survivors and families.
- Lean on your community, your elders, and your traditions. You don't have to carry this alone.
- It's okay to step away from social media when it becomes too much.
