The Cattaraugus County Child Support Enforcement Unit helps to strengthen families and reduce welfare spending by placing the responsibility for supporting children on those parents with the financial resources to provide such support. The Child Support Unit works with both private and public assistance and Medicaid clients.

There is a statewide Customer Service Helpline (CSH) that can answer routine questions about the Child Support Program and about individual specific cases. Clients can reach this service by calling 888-208-4485 or emailing CSEWEBCattaraugus@dfa.state.ny.us.
