This executive summary highlights work done by the National Child Welfare Resource Center for Tribes (NRC4Tribes) – in collaboration with the Children’s Bureau – on a comprehensive Technical Assistance Needs Assessment. Through a mixed-method design, this work included an online needs assessment and more than 140 in-person and on-site interviews with tribal stakeholders in order to assess the needs and strengths of diverse tribal child welfare systems across the country. These findings can be used to help guide T/TA provision to tribes and more effectively meet the needs of tribal child welfare systems.
