Ohio project aims for more time for split families

A statewide project in Ohio will try to increase the time a child spends with both parents, even if they are divorced or separated. Fairfield County Job and Family Services is leading the four-year $400,000 initiative and Ohio University’s College of Health Sciences and Professions will participate. According to The Athens Messenger, the goal is to have both parents, although separated, work together on behalf of the child. The other participating counties are Coshocton, Cuyahoga, Franklin, Knox, Licking, Monroe, Pickaway, Stark, Summit, Union and Wayne. The project is funded through the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.

Randy Leite, dean of Ohio University’s College of Health Sciences and Professions, will oversee the evaluation of the project. State and local child support agencies hope to come up with ways to establish parenting time duties. “We want to see if parenting time orders have an impact on the level of compliance on the child support order,” said Corey Clark, director of the child support enforcement agency in Fairfield County. Under the current system, if a parent doesn’t pay child support, legal action can be taken, according to Leite, but if a resident parent doesn’t let the other parent see a child, “not much can be done.” By arranging for both child support and parenting time simultaneously, Leite thinks families will maximize shared parenting time. He also expects child support payments will be more consistent. The plan is to have a pilot program running in Fairfield County by the end of next year, adding the other counties thereafter. “The idea is for us to go to the courts or Job and Family Services agents and say, ‘Here’s a strategy that works for helping kids.’ That’s the hope anyway,” Leite added.
