This one-hour training will introduce CASA staff and volunteers to the purpose of LB1032, the role of Tribes in permanency planning, and how Tribal Customary Adoption can support the well-being of Native children and families. Participants will learn how this new permanency option aligns with the goals of the Indian Child Welfare Act (ICWA), preserves important family and cultural connections, and creates an opportunity for more culturally responsive permanency. The session will also explore how CASA advocates can support implementation through informed advocacy, a child-centered approach to permanency planning, and collaboration with Tribes and NEDHHS.
