  • Bringing Awareness To Missing Murdered Indigenous Women

    Bringing Awareness To Missing Murdered Indigenous Women

    During Sexual Assault Awareness Month, TnTech College Democrats will be having a tabling event to bring awareness to an issue that is hindering our nation. We will be talking about the Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women issue that is hurting the Indigenous community. Hundreds of indigenous people go missing every year, and many of their cases are left cold. Come talk with TnTech College Democrats and the Native American Student Alliance about statistics and how to help the indigenous community.

    April 11, 2024, from 10-1 on the Plaza. 

    Thank you!

    Savannah Hunter, President of TnTech College Democrats.
