X-WR-CALDESC:Across the country\, there are 574 federally recognized Native
  American tribes that have a government-to-government relationship with th
 e United States. As sovereign nations\, they have legal jurisdiction over 
 their lands and citizens. However\, until the passing of the Indian Child 
 Welfare Act of 1978 (ICWA)\, the authority of Tribes to exercise their exc
 lusive jurisdiction over their Native children in child custody proceeding
 s was not recognized. ICWA established procedural guidelines for placement
  and removal protocols that mandate notice to Native families and Tribes i
 n all pending child custody proceedings to prioritize family integrity and
  adhere to tribal sovereignty. In recent years\, ICWA has been a legal bat
 tleground between non-native families seeking to adopt native children and
  native families trying to keep children connected to their culture and co
 mmunities. The current legal challenge to ICWA is headed to the Supreme Co
 urt\, which could either reaffirm the constitutionality of the law acknowl
 edging the special relationship between tribes and the federal government 
 or strike it down as an unconstitutional “race-based” law in violation of 
 equal protection and states’ rights. \n\nJoin the Field Center and the Uni
