The Division of Child Support works together with Oregon's American Indian Tribes in an effort to continually enhance the child support services provided to the families involved. There are nine federally-recognized Indian Tribes in the state of Oregon. Each one is an Independent Sovereign Government with a status similar to other states or foreign nations.
Division of Child Support contacts are assigned to work with each Oregon Tribe to obtain intergovernmental agreements and establish procedures for the use of tribal courts to establish and enforce child support obligations that are under tribal jurisdiction. They also assist with Tribal TANF and Tribal IV-D programs in Oregon, provide technical assistance and training to Tribal staff and assist in the development of Tribal-specific policies and procedures as requested.
For more information about child support and procedures for working with Oregon Tribes please contact one of the Division of Child Support representatives assigned as follows:
