Nebraska Appleseed will be hosting a free, discussion-based webinar covering the federal and Nebraska Indian Child Welfare Acts, discussing their purpose and importance to Nebraska’s Native communities and beyond, and reviewing the unique requirements each imposes on child custody proceedings. It will also discuss Brackeen v. Bernhardt, a case currently before the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals, challenging ICWA as a whole.
This webinar will be led by Nebraska Appleseed’s Child Welfare Staff Attorney, Alli Derr, and the Nebraska Indian Child Welfare Coalition’s Executive Director, Misty Frazier. It is scheduled for June 28, 2019 from 12:00 p.m. – 1:00 p.m. CST and has been approved for 1 CLE credit, which will be provided to you at no cost!
