NICWA is a nonprofit organization based in Portland, Oregon, focused on the safety, health, and spiritual strength of American Indian and Alaska Native children across their lives. Founded as a grassroots effort nearly 40 years ago, NICWA works with tribes and at state, federal, and tribal levels to build capacity to prevent child abuse and neglect through positive systems change. It is a leading information resource on Native child welfare, providing training, technical assistance, and advocacy to meet evolving community needs. In 2025 NICWA expanded its tools with the launch of web-based advocacy software and a policy advocacy platform to support federal policy changes prioritizing Native children and tribal nations. The organization maintains active engagement with tribal communities and national partners through events such as the Protecting Its Children Conference, reflecting ongoing collaboration and knowledge sharing.
