Alphonsus Peters, 69, of Nulato remains missing. As hunting season brings more people onto the river and into areas surrounding Nulato, we are asking hunters, boaters and others traveling downriver to please remain alert and keep an eye out for Alphonsus or anything that may help locate him.

Alphonsus was last known to be at his residence in Nulato on July 28. His clothing description and direction of travel are unknown.

Please take a moment to review and share the attached missing person flyer, particularly with anyone who may be traveling the river or spending time in remote areas.

StrongHearts can help survivors navigate resources.

📊 American Indian and Alaska Native female victims are more likely to need services, but they are less likely to have access to those services.

As a trusted partner, you can help close that gap.

Whether you're working with survivors in healthcare, victim services, Tribal programs, social services, education, or community organizations, referring to StrongHearts means connecting survivors to compassionate, trauma-informed support whenever they need it.

Together, we can expand access, strengthen referral networks, and ensure survivors know they don't have to navigate their healing journey alone.
