Abstract
The purpose of this study was to explore child welfare workers' opinions as to what the barriers are in implementing the Indian Child Welfare Act of 1978. The results will contribute to social work practice by addressing the fact that Native Americans represent a disproportional amount of youth and families serviced by Child Welfare and ICWA.
