Dear Tribal Leaders: Create a STATE ICWA law

 


Dear Tribal Leader Letter Regarding Uniform State ICWA Law

The Uniform Law Commission is seeking to consult with tribes regarding the need and/or benefit of a uniform ICWA law for those states that either need to update their current state laws or do not have one yet. Consultation will be held via zoom on September 6, with written comments accepted through September 30.  Please see the letter for additional details on the project. Please distribute widely.

State ICWA Law Chart

Over the last week, I've put together a (large, clunky) Google sheets of all the state ICWA laws. It isn't perfect and subject to change as I see problems or people tell me there are problems. Sheets can be difficult, but it is nice to use to keep it updated. Someday I'll learn how to make a proper database, but I know there is a need for this now rather than later.

I've linked to it on the state law page here and the link directly to the sheet is here.
