California Child Support Services

The California Department of Child Support Services oversees a network of 47 local child support agencies that provide services to the general public at the county level. Child Support Services creates a record of all child support payments, serves as a neutral entity between parents, helps parents avoid court, and assists with navigating the child support system. Child Support Services staff act in the public interest and do not represent anyone. 

Promote parental responsibility to enhance the well-being of children by providing child support services to establish parentage and collect child support.

All parents are engaged in supporting their children.
