Women attending a meeting online.

Planning for this year's virtual Indigenous, Children, Youth & Families (ICYF) conference is underway! We are excited to announce that DCYF's Office of Tribal Relations (OTR) is currently accepting session proposals. We are looking for sessions that will build on the knowledge and skills of those working with system-involved Native families.

Past sessions have included topics such as:

  • Tribal Sovereignty
  • Indian Child Welfare 
  • Juvenile Rehabilitation
  • Tribal Health & Wellness 
  • Supports for Tribal Families

This year's conference will be held virtually on Oct. 15-16, 2025. 

Submit your proposal to present at ICYF 2025 by filling out the Call to Presenters Form
