Charlene Sleeper is a Billings based Missing & Murdered Indigenous Peoples (MMIP) crisis advocate. They are a descendent of the Crow Tribe, Chippewa-Cree Tribe, and are enrolled in the Southern Cheyenne & Arapahoe Tribes of Oklahoma.

Inspired by the 2018 Billings Women’s March which highlighted the Missing & Murdered Indigenous Women’s (MMIW) Movement, they began researching the scope of the MMIW crisis. Since then, Charlene has developed the MMIP Billings Advocacy Project which performs many volunteer services including but not limited to: communicating missing persons information and persons of interest information to the public, supporting MMIP victim families in raising awareness for their cases, consulting on issues which contribute to the MMIP crisis, and promoting MMIP resource information. The MMIP Billings Advocacy project also organizes various types of awareness and intervention/prevention projects. This years priority area of focus is addiction recovery. Addiction often plays a role in homicides and human trafficking.

Charlene’s work spans tribal, local, state, and federal levels. They’ve supported Montana State MMIP policy work since 2019 and have provided MMIP homicide and missing persons field observations to the Federal Bureau of Investigation. They’ve also provided testimonies to the Trump Administration’s Operation Lady Justice and the Biden Administration’s Not Invisible Act Commission which were created to seek solutions to America’s MMIP Crisis.

We are incredibly honored to know and work alongside MMIP Billings, and to help create space for her voice, her advocacy and the deeply important work surrounding the MMIP crisis. This is more than awareness—it is about honoring the lives, families and stories behind the statistics, standing with those carrying this work forward, and using every platform we have to listen, learn and help amplify what cannot be ignored.
