Child Support Month

Making families healthy and stronger with support!

In FY2021, the Ohio child support program collected $1.7 billion

70% of child support was collected by income withholding from an employee’s paycheck.

95% of child support collected went to families.

Child support is one of the most cost-effective government programs. The child support program served 680,000 children statewide.

One in three (3) children are involved in Ohio’s Child Support Program.
