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.
