Product Description
This is one-of-a-kind guide to the Indian Child Welfare Act of 1978, enacted to ameliorate the problem of the removal of Native American children from their homes by state welfare agencies and private agencies and to ensure that those children would be placed in homes that reflect their cultures and traditions. Now revised and updated, it examines case law from courts around the country-this is not an issue confined to reservations and their border towns. It explains the history of the act and how is applied, as well as its procedural requirements. Includes appendices on CD-ROM.

Ultimate ICWA Resource Book November 16, 2009
Mary Blount (TX)
Jones' second edition remains the last word in Indian Child Welfare Law. Althought the law has not changed since enactment, Jones has added materials including a CD that keeps his 2008 edition in first place. This book is a must have for educators, social workers and legal professionals who serve Native American children and families.
