Services
The Indian Child Welfare Program provides child protection, prevention, reunification, adoption and post-adoption services to Peoria children and families. ICW monitors cases in state court systems to ensure the Indian Child Welfare Act is being observed in respect to Peoria children. ICW recruits and certifies Indian homes to serve as foster care placement for Peoria children removed from their homes due to abuse or neglect. ICW also serves as a social service liaison for many Peoria families.
