For Parents

The Ohio Child Support Professionals Association (OCSPA) is a non-profit membership organization for child support professionals.  We do not have access to individual child support case information and cannot answer specific questions about your child support case.

Do you have questions or need help with your child support case?

If you have case specific questions, please contact the county child support enforcement agency (CSEA) which issued your child support order. Contact information for each county CSEA can be found below.
