To Quinto, ICWA helps adoptees like her to stay connected to their identities and communities.


“Who could ever believe that [ICWA]
would be taken away?” she said. “That’s one of the last things keeping
our community together in the way that it has, so imagining a world
where that doesn’t exist is just too, too painful.”
