QIC-AG Full Evaluation Report: Family Group Decision Making (Winnebago Tribe of Nebraska)

Winnebago Tribe of Nebraska – Final Evaluation Report presents the full evaluation of the QIC‑AG implementation of Family Group Decision Making (FGDM) by the Winnebago Tribe of Nebraska. This report examines how FGDM, a culturally grounded and family‑centered practice, was adapted and implemented within a tribal child welfare context to support children and families moving toward, or who had achieved, adoption or guardianship. It details the evaluation design, target population, implementation processes, cultural adaptations, and fidelity considerations, along with outcomes related to family engagement, permanency planning, and support for post‑permanency stability. As a full evaluation report, this resource provides comprehensive evidence and lessons learned to inform tribal and non‑tribal child welfare systems interested in culturally responsive, prevention‑oriented interventions to strengthen adoption and guardianship preservation.
