dc.description.abstractA key piece of responding to crimes committed against children is to draft or review and revise tribal laws. This Guide was developed to provide a starting point for drafting or revising tribal laws addressing crimes committed against children. It is written with the philosophy that tribal laws should reflect tribal values. In addition, writing a tribal code usually requires careful consideration of how state and/or federal laws might apply in the community. The Guide takes a team approach to the code development process—although individuals taking on this task can use this Guide as well. This Guide includes examples from a variety of existing tribal codes and exercises that are designed to help tribal community members determine the best code options for their community. The examples may not be appropriate for every community. Please consider all the options and related issues before making final decisions.en_US
