Western Bureau reports Hopi Chairman Vernon Masayesva welcomed the Indian Child Abuse Prevention and Treatment Act enacted by Congress and expected to be signed by President Bush. The measure requires mandatory reporting by professionals, creates a central tribal abuse registry, and allocates up to 30 million dollars yearly for treatment and up to 10 million for tribal grants, while Hopi programs struggle with funding and a 50 family waiting list for therapists.
