Child Support Life-cycle

Why Align

Changing social dynamics, rising incarceration rates, parental alienation due to growing child support debts, and a volatile economy make it difficult to maintain a steady stream of payments. Using new and innovative technology , Align fosters an approach of involvement rather than enforcement to help agencies encourage  parents toward a shared mission while ensuring continuity of financial support. Align addresses every possible child support scenario, keeps costs down, and helps deliver the Child Support mission: that every child receives the support, participation, and love of both parents.

Align Benefits

  • Disabled Adult Children who are deemed incapable of earning a livelihood.
  • Step-Parents who have legally adopted or are willing to adopt the child.
