The Resource Center on Domestic Violence: Child Protection and Custody, a project of the NCJFCJ, is pleased to announce a new webinar focusing on the intersection of child welfare and domestic violence. This webinar will examine the Indian Child Welfare Act and its history and purpose. It will focus in on ICWA’s requirement for the implementation of active efforts in child welfare matters, what that means, and how those active efforts may be implemented in families that are impacted by domestic violence.
