The Missouri Department of Social Services, operating as Finance and Administrative Services, was awarded a $181,477 Formula Grant under the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Children and Families' Grants to States for Access and Visitation Programs (CFDA 93.597). This two-year grant, effective from October 1, 2024, to September 30, 2026, will enable the state agency to create and implement programs that support and facilitate access and visitation for non-custodial parents with their children. Funded activities may include mediation, counseling, education, and development of parenting plans designed to promote healthy co-parenting relationships and increase non-custodial parent involvement. The Department of Social Services frequently partners with local government entities, non-profit organizations, and community action agencies to deliver these services at the community level across Missouri.
