Child Support Enforcement

We value children having care and support from both of their parents.  We are committed to your child(ren) receiving these supports and helping both parents get what they need to be successful in helping their child(ren) thrive.

By taking an active role in learning about Child Support Services, you’ll likely have a greater success receiving regular support payments – or, if you are the paying parent, success in making regular child support payments.
