This legislation affects California dependency, delinquency, guardianship and some family proceedings involving Indian children. The Indian Child Welfare Act (ICWA) was enacted in 1978 in response to a crisis affecting American Indian and Alaska Native children, families, and tribes.
ICWA mandates active efforts in two areas: Preventing the removal of the child or reunifying them after removal. This includes offering culturally appropriate services. Collaborating with the childs tribe on all case planning decisions.
Yes, ICWA still applies. Even if a tribal nation does not actively participate in the case, the state is legally required to follow ICWA requirements to protect the rights of Native children and families.
ICWA at a Glance This resource provides a brief overview of the five provisions of ICWA that fulfill the intended purpose of the law: inquiry and notice, active efforts, proper placement, concurrent planning and qualified expert witness.
Since 1978, 17 states (California, Colorado, Connecticut, Iowa, Maine, Michigan, Minnesota, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Mexico, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Oregon, Washington, Wisconsin and Wyoming) have passed their own state ICWA laws.
