OPINION

SIMS, Acting P. J. —

Appellant V.M. (mother), the mother of J.P. (born June 1997), K.P. (born Oct. 1998), and J.M. (born Dec. 2003), appeals from an order of the juvenile court terminating her parental rights. (Welf. & Inst. Code, §§ 366.26, 395; undesignated statutory references are to the Welfare and Institutions Code.)

Appellant J.M. (father), the father of minor J.M.,[1] appeals from an order entered by the juvenile court pursuant to section 366.26, which did not terminate his parental rights but which did set adoption as the permanent placement goal.

[3] The court found there is a probability that J.P. will be adopted, he is difficult to place, and termination of parental rights would not be detrimental to him. (§§ 366.26, 395.)

On appeal, mother and father (collectively, appellants) contend that the juvenile court did not comply with the notice provisions of the Indian Child Welfare Act of 1978. (25 U.S.C., § 1901 et seq.; ICWA.) We shall affirm.
