Active Efforts - What Judicial Officers & Council for Parents & Children Need to Know - REGISTRATION

In cases governed by ICWA children and parents are entitled to “active efforts” rather than reasonable services. How are active efforts different than reasonable services? What should a judicial officer be looking for in a case plan and report to ensure that an agency is providing active efforts in an ICWA case? What questions should counsel for an Indian parent or child be asking and what should they be demanding on behalf of their clients to ensure that active efforts are being provided? This webinar will provide a close look at these questions and practical strategies for ensuring the active efforts requirement is being complied with.

This event is sponsored by the Judicial Council of California, Center for Families, Children & the Courts, with the support of a grant awarded by the California Department of Social Services.
