Supporting Child Support Awareness Month
August is Child Support Awareness Month, a time to recognize and celebrate the vital work of child support professionals. These dedicated individuals work tirelessly behind the scenes, helping families access the resources and support they need. From locating parents to processing payments to connecting parents with opportunities and other services, child support professionals play a crucial role in ensuring the well-being of children across our community.
This month, we honor their commitment and pledge to provide them with the valuable resources they require to continue their impactful work. By supporting child support professionals, they can uplift families and the bright futures of our youth.
Join us in expressing gratitude for these unsung heroes during Child Support Awareness Month.

If it wasn’t for CLEAR, I would not be as successful in my caseload as I am. I wouldn’t have access to the countrywide resources I need in order to do my job and make sure the monetary support gets to the children who need it.

CLEAR has really opened the door for me to help more people. It feels good to help someone and provide solutions when you know they can do better. And when you help the family unit, you help the children.
