Who We Are

The California Child Support Association (CalCSA) is a nonprofit organization comprised of the local child support agencies representing the 58 counties throughout California.  The association was established in 2000 to be of service to the local child support agencies in their effort to provide children and families with the financial, medical, and emotional support required to be productive and healthy citizens in our society.

Vision

All children have support from their parents.

Mission

Advocating for the support of California’s children.

Who We Are Not

CalCSA is not a local child support agency and does not process child support cases.  For information or assistance with your personal child support case, you should call (866) 901-3212.

There are 47 local child support agencies throughout California that process and enforce child support cases. All cases processed at the county or regional level only.
