responsibilities involve regular contact
with, or control over, Indian children;
and to conduct an investigation of the
character of each individual who is
employed, or is being considered for
employment in a position having
regular contact with, or control over,
Indian children. Section 3207(b) of the
Indian Child Protection and Family

felonious offense, or any of two or more
misdemeanor offenses under Federal,
State, or Tribal law involving crimes of
violence; sexual assault, molestation,
exploitation, contact or prostitution;
crimes against persons; or offenses
committed against children. In addition,
42 U.S.C. 13041 requires each agency of
the Federal Government, and every
facility operated by the Federal
Government (or operated under contract
with the Federal Government), that
hires (or contracts for hire) individuals
involved with children under the age of
18 or child care services to assure that
all existing and newly hired employees
undergo a criminal history background
check. The background is to be initiated
