SUMMARY:Assessing the Scope of Missing Native Americans in Nebraska: Results from a State-Wide Study and Recommendations
DESCRIPTION:National Indian Country Training Initiative Announcement  \nThe problem of missing persons has gained significant attention\, and recent legislation in multiple states has called for studies on the scope of missing Native Americans. This webinar will describe the methodological and practical issues for researchers to consider when examining data on missing persons\, and present the issues that make reporting and investigating missing Native persons particularly challenging. Using data from four point-in-time-counts of missing persons in Nebraska in 2020\, the presenters will report the prevalence and context of Nebraska’s missing persons and missing Native persons\, and describe stability and change across demographic groups over time. The presenters also collected qualitative data from victim service providers regarding ways to support families and loved ones of missing persons. \nResults indicate that missing persons cases are dynamic and most cases are resolved quickly. Further\, the rate of missing persons and the rank order positions of demographic groups is relatively stable over time. Reported missing persons are disproportionately African American and Native American and are most likely to be minor boys. None of the missing Native cases were associated with a criminal investigation\, and more Native missing persons cases were resolved than missing persons cases from other racial groups. Further\, there was very little overlap between the state clearinghouse and the national missing persons lists. The presenters will provide specific directions for data collection\, legislative priorities\, and researcher-practitioner partnerships regarding the study of missing persons generally and missing Native Americans specifically. They will also address the potential role of missing persons advocacy in supporting families and communities.  There is no cost for attending this webinar. \nThis media and materials are for Department of Justice use and subject to protection from release under the Freedom of Information Act\, 5 U.S.C. section 552. \nThe Executive Office for United States Attorneys (EOUSA) will provide reasonable accommodations to people with disabilities.

No nominee will be excluded from a course on the basis of a disability-related accommodations request. \n                          \n\n\n\n \nTraining Date\nJanuary 31\, 2022\n\n\n \nTraining Times (EST)\n3:00 – 4:30 p.m. EST\n\n\n \nTraining Times (CST)\n2:00 pm – 3:30 pm CST\n\n\n \nTraining Times (MST)\n1:00 pm – 2:30 pm MST\n\n\n \nTraining Times (PST)\n12:00 pm – 1:30 pm PST\n\n\n\n  \nNon-DOJ Registration Deadline: Wednesday\, January 26\, 2022 \nREGISTER
