How ALSC can help

New Resource! We have created a complete guide on how to find and use a Tribal Court in Alaska! If you have questions on getting help through Tribal Court, please contact one of our offices.

New Resource! This directory provides the current status and phone number for many Tribal Courts in Alaska during COVID-19. We are constantly updating it, and encourage you to reach out to us if you have new information or would like your Tribal Court added.

New Resource! ALSC now provides guides for parents to help them call into their court hearings and stay involved in their children’s lives while incarcerated: Anchorage, Anvil Mountain, Fairbanks, Goose Creek, Hiland Mountain, Ketchikan, Lemon Creek, Mat-Su, Palmer, Point Mackenzie, Spring, Wildwood, Yukon-Kuskokwim.

New Resource! ALSC is now offering an online “Basics of ICWA” class. To learn more watch the video below.

In addition to providing online resources through this website, ALSC provides free legal assistance to Tribes with mostly low-income citizens that lack the resources to hire private counsel. Other Tribes may contract for services with ALSC. ALSC represents Tribes and tribal members in matters such as:

  • Drafting and enforcing tribal court orders
  • Code drafting/consultation on jurisdiction
  • Enforcing ICWA in state court
  • Assisting with court forms

 For more information, please contact the ALSC office in your area.
