Child Support Enforcement
-- Important Announcement about Use of the Federal Register --
NOTICE: Beginning with FY 2006, the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) no longer publishes grant announcements in the Federal Register. Applicants may now find synopses of all ACF grant opportunities posted on www.grants.gov, where applicants may also apply electronically.

The Child Support Enforcement Program provides four major services to our customers: locating non-custodial parents, establishing paternity, establishing support orders and collecting support payments. The program also provides services to non-custodial parents. States offer access and visitation services through federal grants.
The Federal Office of Child Support Enforcement maintains an Internet site that is always available and open to give general child support information. It provides access to state child support agency Internet sites as well. The OCSE Internet site provides general answers to many questions that families may have about the program. Questions regarding a specific case are best answered by the state child support agency since states are responsible for the day-to-day administration of the program.
For complete funding information, visit the Child Support Enforcement website.
