The federal Block Grant award for $70,896,028.00 was provided by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Children and Families under the Child Support Services program (CFDA 93.563). The grant, which has a performance period from October 1, 2024 to September 30, 2025, will support the Oklahoma Department of Human Services (OK DHS) in enforcing child support obligations, locating absent parents, establishing paternity, and obtaining child, spousal, and medical support. OK DHS manages over $1.3 billion in annual federal grant funding and delivers critical health, education, employment, and social services across Oklahoma through partnerships with community organizations, food banks, tribes, and local non-profit entities. The award is part of the federal government's widespread commitment to the Child Support Services program, which provides block grants ranging from approximately $350,000 to over $1.1 billion to state agencies and federally recognized tribal governments to support comprehensive child support enforcement mechanisms.
