Performance of IHS mission requires
the support of contractors. In some circumstances, depending on the
requirements of the specific contract, the contractor is tasked to
provide personnel who will be dealing with Indian children under
the age of 18. Before working on the contract, each of these
contractor personnel must undergo a background check as required by
federal law (Indian Child Protection and Family Violence Act
(ICPFVA)). The contractor is therefore required to provide
information on the individual so that a proper background check can
be performed.
