They are seeking input on the following:
- What additional supports would Tribal leaders find helpful to build their Tribe’s capacity to exercise their rights and responsibilities under ICWA?
- Are there specific supports you believe the Federal government could provide to help state courts and child welfare agencies meet their obligations under ICWA? In your experience, are there specific aspects or requirements of ICWA where state courts and agencies need to build greater understanding or capacity?
- Are there existing State-Tribe collaborative partnerships or processes that you believe have helped support effective implementation of ICWA?
They welcome your written comments, which should be submitted by email to consultation@bia.gov by 11:59pm ET on Friday, June 14, 2024.
