KESHENA, WI – The Waking Women Healing Institute is continuing its work to support survivors of violence and families impacted by Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and People on the Menominee Reservation.
Alysse Corn says the Gresham-based organization focuses on raising awareness, offering support, and helping families navigate the long path toward healing. She explains the recent unveiling of a red jingle dress is just one step in a broader movement aimed at bringing communities together and acknowledging the pain many families carry.
Corn says the dress represents both healing and unity, offering comfort while helping shine a light on the ongoing fight for justice and awareness. She describes the effort as part of a continuing process to ease pain and strengthen community connections.
The red jingle dress is now on display at the Menominee Tribal Historic Preservation Museum in Keshena, where it serves as a living tribute to those lost and a lasting reminder of the need for awareness, healing, and change.
