Colorado Indian Child

Say it early — the machinery engages on reason to know.

The screen below runs the reason-to-know triggers. A yes engages inquiry, notice, and the sovereign's own doors — and this platform routes there rather than restating tribal procedure. The truth layer travels with it: the old compliance section is REPEALED, Colorado's own ICWA act replaced it, and citations to dead law get caught here, not resolved.

The reason-to-know triggers — does ANY of these fit?

  • The child or a parent is a member of (or eligible for membership in) a federally recognized tribe
  • The child, parent, or family identifies tribal heritage or a reservation connection
  • The residence is on tribal land, or a tribal court has touched the family before
  • Any participant, officer, or agency says there is reason to know the child is an Indian child
