Policy and Programs for Children and Families:
Paper details:
– Both The Indian Child Welfare Act (ICWA)
https://www.nicwa.org/Indian_Child_Welfare_Act/
and The Multi-Ethnic Placement Act (MEPA)
https://info.dhhs.state.nc.us/olm/manuals/dss/csm-50/man/appendixp.pdf
– These Policies were passed to address civil rights issues that influence out-of-home placement of children. Yet, they prescribe very different criteria to consider when deciding on appropriate out-of-home placements for children.
– How do you account for these differences?
