Congress views Indian children as chattel for tribal governments – forcing children and families who have no emotional connection to Indian Country to submit to tribal jurisdiction.
However, a new ICWA case is making its way up the ladder. ‘In the Matter of the Welfare of the Children of: L.K. and A.S., Parents‘, is headed to the Minnesota Supreme Court.
CAICW was invited to write an Amicus brief in support of the petitioners. You can read CAICW’s amicus here:
