People ex rel J.S.B.1/5/2005
fter December 2, 2002, the fact is that DSS continued to make those efforts. Under ICWA, DSS was bound by law to make "active efforts" to reunite J.S.B with his father, but it was not required to persist with futile efforts. In re S.D., 599 NW2d 772, 775 n3 (MichCtApp 1999). Considering that DSS worked with the parents for several years, that J.S.B had been removed from their custody three times because of substance abuse related neglect, that the child has been in foster care for much of his life, and that both parents continued their debilitating substance abuse, termination of parental rights was the least restrictive alternative available and in the best interests of J.S.B.
[ .] Affirmed.
[ .] GILBERTSON, Chief Justice, and SABERS, ZINTER, and MEIERHENRY, Justices, concur.
