The history of American Indian children and social welfare services in the United States is a long and painful one, but a new federal law seems to offer a glimmer of hope.
The Connections to Success and Increasing Adoptions Act (CSIAA), which was signed into law last year, will allow eligible tribal programs to apply for direct funding from the largest federal funding stream for entitled foster care and adoption assistance services for income eligible children.
