Child Support is money a parent pays to help provide food, clothing and other things for his or her child.  In addition to basic monetary support, child support may include such things as medical support, payment of uncovered medical bills and contributions to child care costs.

The DRS helps parents apply for child support services, establish paternity and support orders, and enforce child support orders.

The county DRS can also help if the noncustodial parent lives in another Pennsylvania county, a different state, or even another country.

 

State and federal laws govern how child support orders are established and enforced.  These laws also govern how child support is collected.
