The Importance of the Indian Child Welfare Act

The text contains a letter from Claude Cox, Principal Chief of the Creek Nation, to US Representative James R. Jones.

Cox argues that the Act is important to the Creek Nation as it will reinforce the tribe's jurisdiction over domestic family matters, including child welfare and adoption.
