Native women are murdered at 10 times the national rate; 1 out 3 Native women will be raped in her lifetime, and 3 out of 5 physically assaulted.  Even worse, 88% of the perpetrators are non-Indian and cannot be prosecuted by tribal governments.  Stand and take action now to restore safety and justice for Native women.    Do Something!
