What is the Indian Child Welfare Act? “The children that were brought to the Eklutna Vocational School were expected to learn the English language. They were not allowed to speak their own language even among themselves.” Alberta Stephan 63 Why do we hear so much about high rates of alcoholism, suicide, and violence in many Alaska Native communities?
