Excutive Office Of The Government Of The US Virgin Islands

The Executive Office of the Government of the US Virgin Islands, operating through its VI Department of Justice Paternity & Child Support Division, is a U.S. local government entity designated as a child entity within the territorial government structure. Registered in SAM.gov since March 25, 2022, this organization serves as the primary administrative body responsible for managing child support enforcement and related family services in the US Virgin Islands. The entity provides critical social services to the federal government through formula grant awards focused on supporting families and strengthening parental involvement in children's lives.

The VI Department of Justice Paternity & Child Support Division has consistently received federal formula grant funding under the Grants to States for Access and Visitation Programs (CFDA 93.597) from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Children and Families, specifically through the Office of Child Support Enforcement. The organization has maintained this funding stream across five consecutive fiscal years, with awards in 2022, 2023, 2024, 2025, and 2026, each valued at $100,000 and operating on a two-year grant cycle from October 1 through September 30. Through these grants, the Division provides comprehensive support services designed to facilitate meaningful relationships between non-custodial parents and their children, including mediation services, counseling programs, parenting education, development of customized parenting plans, and visitation enforcement mechanisms. These grant-funded activities directly support the Division's core mission of promoting shared parenting arrangements and ensuring that non-custodial parents remain actively engaged in their children's lives throughout the US Virgin Islands. The organization operates as a prime awardee with no identified federal contract prime awardees or sub-recipients listed in its recent award history.
