State sets child support record

By Staff
Alabama set a new record for child support collections in Fiscal Year 2006.
Statewide collections increased almost 12 percent over the past four years. “From Fiscal Year 2003 through Fiscal Year 2006, child support collections in Alabama totaled more than a billion dollars,” Commissioner Walley said. “Collecting this money ensures that dependent children receive the financial support that they need and deserve from their parents.”
He credited the hard work of the agency’s county child support staff and their community partners for the record-setting collections.
