Indian Child Welfare Act Manual
provided by Washington State DSHS The primary purpose of this Indian Child Welfare Manual is to partially implement a formal agreement between 20 Tribes and the state. The Department of Social and Health Services (DSHS) subsequently adopted it as the statewide policy in order to extend the agreement’s protections to all Indian children in the state. The agreement governs the Indian Child Welfare (ICW) procedures and practices of the state and state licensed agencies and seeks to maximize the opportunity for tribal participation in every phase of agency decision-making affecting Indian children. |
