Can I get Help through Child Support Enforcement? Since 1975, the Federal government has given states funds to run a child support program. States must provide services for any custodial parent in the state who needs help collecting child support. Missouri's program is run through the Department of Social Services, Division of Child Support Enforcement. Families who get cash assistance through the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) and other public programs automatically qualify to get help from Child Support Enforcement collecting child support. In fact, Missouri parents getting TANF or Medicaid are required to cooperate with Child Support Enforcement.
