![["The letter addresses the mental health issues faced by American Indian children and families, highlighting the need for understanding and respect for their unique tribes and cultures. It discusses the impact of historical conquest and the importance of tribal self-governance. Recommendations are made for long-term planning and support for Indian children, as well as for other races with special needs, such as foster children. The author emphasizes the importance of tribal input in decision-making and opposes Senate Bill 1214 for potentially infringing on Indian rights and autonomy."]](/thumb/CAC_CC_003_2_32_11_0021.jpg "Addressing Mental Health Issues Among Native American Tribes: A Letter to the President's Commission on Mental Health")
