obituaries
“In partnership with county agencies, we are committed
to helping families access community resources
that can help them overcome barriers to paying child
support,” said ODJFS Director Matt Damschroder. “We
strongly encourage parents to establish legal paternity
as soon as possible after their child’s birth. Doing so has
many long-term benefits for both the parents and the
child.”
