In re P.G. CA2/4
During dependency proceedings involving father P.G.’s children P., R., I., and C., father advised the court and the Los Angeles County Department of Children and Family Services (DCFS) that he was or may be a member of a non-federally recognized Indian tribe. Although the Indian Child Welfare Act of 1978 (25 U.S.C. § 1901 et seq.; ICWA) applies only to federally recognized tribes, DCFS sent the tribe notice of the proceedings prior to the permanency planning hearing. The tribe responded with a letter stating the children may be eligible for enrollment, explaining the enrollment process, and expressing interest in providing the children with cultural resources and services. The letter also stated that the tribe participates in dependency cases involving tribal children and requested further information about the case, including contact information for DCFS social workers and counsel.
