The Bureau of Child Support Services (BCSS) program encourages responsible parenting, family self-sufficiency and child well-being by providing assistance in locating parents, establishing paternity, establishing, modifying and enforcing support obligations and obtaining child and medical support for children.

Every child has a right to be supported by both parents, even if the parents are divorced, separated or never married.

We believe in the responsibility of parents to financially support their children.

We aim for quality service helping parents through challenging circumstances concerning child support.

We believe in educating, informing and connecting parents with the right means and resources to help them for the best outcomes and well-being of their children.

Pandemic Related Benefits Changes

Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, the Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) has provided flexibilities in the nutrition and medical assistance programs offered to New Hampshire residents. Based on legislation passed by Congress in December 2022, these benefits flexibilities will be ending. Emergency SNAP benefits will end after the February, 2023, payment. DHHS will resume regular Medicaid eligibility operations beginning on April 1. Additional information and resources are available on the DHHS website page: Pandemic Related Benefits Changes.
