Conclusion<br />
Non-cash child support court orders represent a significant shift in how<br />
parents contribute to their child's well-being during and after divorce or<br />
separation. By allowing parents to move beyond cash payments and<br />
consider alternative support arrangements, children benefit from more<br />
tailored and meaningful support. This empowered parenting approach<br />
encourages collaboration, parental involvement, and ultimately prioritizes<br />
the best interests of the child. As we embrace non-cash child support<br />
options, we are breaking the mold and paving the way for more<br />
empowering and effective methods of child support.<br />

Manager Title IV-D (Director)<br />
Karen M. Roye was appointed Director of the San Francisco Department of Child Support Services by<br />
Mayor Gavin Newsom in 2004. Director Roye has been a pioneer in introducing innovative programs and<br />
collaborations that revolutionized child support service delivery to custodial and non-custodial parents in<br />
San Francisco. Today, SF DCSS provides a variety of service models that support parents such as: C-<br />
NET, Enhanced Transitional Jobs Demonstration Project (Transitions SF), County Jail Outreach, Debt<br />
Relief, and enhanced domestic violence case management. SF DCSS has developed a parental<br />
empowerment portfolio of innovative services that includes early intervention strategies, family violence<br />
prevention, referrals to employment services, and active collaborations with local partners. Director Roye’s<br />
goal is to create service delivery models that keep pace with the needs of families today so that children<br />
can continue to count on their parents for the financial and medical support they need to be healthy and<br />
successful.
