Erin I. v. Department of Family & Community Services, Office of Children's Services

Summary

The Alaska Supreme Court affirmed termination of Erin's parental rights to Kameron, an Indian child, based on her persistent failure to protect him from domestic violence in the home. The court upheld findings that Kameron was a child in need of aid, that OCS made active efforts, that Erin failed to remedy the conditions placing Kameron at risk, that returning him would likely cause serious harm, and that termination served his best interests. No separate opinions were filed.
