Social Services Forms
ND ICWA
The ICWA (Indian Child Welfare Act) form is used to protect Native American children’s rights by ensuring they stay connected to their tribal culture and community during child custody proceedings. It helps prioritize placing Native American children with their extended families or within their tribe whenever possible.
