Am looking for anyone who knew Lisa Hauben, @mozzie316 IRL, my older half sister. You and she were connected through these accounts and I'd love to talk with anyone who knew her, especially in recovery.

Protecting ICWA means protecting future generations of Native children. Hear from ICWA supporters, such as @ReunionLand and Molly Ryan KillsEnemy, about their experiences of being adopted before ICWA was enacted in 1978. These stories remind us why we need to #ProtectICWA.

As a child, Marshal was taken into the child welfare system.
His tribe, the Little Shell Chippewa, wasn’t federally recognized at the time, and he didn’t receive protection under Indian Child Welfare Act.
