Following the Spirit of ICWA On Nov 17, 2009 the American Indian Caucus of the State ICWA Workgroup had a discussion about the benefits of applying ICWA to children who may not be from or be eligible to enroll into a federal- or state- recognized tribe. Background: Gold was discovered in Coloma, CA in 1848. In 1928 a census was conducted to determine the number of American Indians in California, resulting in the establishment of the 1933 California Indian Rolls (also referred to as the California Judgment Rolls). The purpose of the census and the rolls was to determine how many Indians there were in CA who had families that were alive in 1851-1852, when 18 treaties were signed by the original Californians. Between 1953-1964 the US Congress terminated federal recognition status of 109 tribes, which exemplifies what is known as the “Termination Era” of the 1940’s – 1960’s. As a result there are many California Indian tribes that are neither federal- nor state- recognized and the descendants of these tribes may have at one time been federally recognized. There are many tribes that were never recognized but are applying for federal recognition today. Today there are individuals with documents that show their family name on the California Roll of 1933, with a notarization from the BIA, however these individuals may not be members of nor eligible to enroll in a federally recognized tribe of California. Reasons For Implementing ICWA to Children From Tribes That Are Neither Federal or State Recognized: Treating these children as ICWA cases can open access to a wider range of services: e.g.
Tribal TANF does not require enrollment, some tribal health centers do not require enrollment, and Title VII Indian Education programs would also be available. ICWA determination is an opportunity for county workers to access more services than before.
SB 678, approved by CA legislature puts into law ensuring ICWA, leaving determination
of services to individuals of non-recognized tribes to the presiding judge of the jurisdiction.
Although individuals may not be enrolled, they may still be part of a larger Indian
community, which can serve as a strength of resources and enhance resilience factors for the youth.
Culturally centered practice, provided as early as possible, will result in more long-
lasting positive outcomes for tribal youth – maintaining and linking them to cultural resources that support their development as healthy self-reliant adults, and reducing the number of times this individual will enter public systems. Ultimately, culturally centered practice at the front end to American Indian children, regardless of their tribe's recognition statues, reduces the public burden of cost, over time.
