Child Support Enforcement Agency - Paternity

6

  • Establishing paternity is the right thing to do! Every father who brings a child into the world should accept his fair share of the financial, legal, and emotional responsibility.
  • A father can experience the reward of contributing to the growth and development of another human being – his child.
  • A father can enjoy a relationship with his child. Through active involvement, the father is often seen by the child as a provider, a role model, and a friend who promotes mutual love and respect.
Child Support Enforcement Agency - Paternity

  • Identity: All children have the right to know their mother and father. Money: Frequently, children supported by only one parent are poorer than children supported by both parents. They need child support. In order to get support, paternity must be legally established. Medical: Your child needs to know if he or she has inherited any special health problems. Also, it might be possible to obtain medical insurance for your child through the father’s employer, union, or military service. Security: Fathers who support their children when they are young are more likely to continue to pay support until they become adults. If you wait, the father may decide to deny paternity which could make your child feel unwanted or unloved. Survivor's Benefits*: If the father dies, your child could qualify for a number of benefits, including Social Security, pensions, inheritance rights, veterans benefits, and life insurance. *Unless legal paternity has been established, your child may not be able to claim these benefits from his or her father.
    Child Support Enforcement Agency - Paternity

  • Not all states establish paternity the same way but, in general, there are two ways in which paternity can be established:
  • If the man you name as the father of your child agrees he is the father, he will be asked to sign an official form stating he is the father. In many hospitals and clinics, these forms are available to parents immediately following the birth of their child. This form will be used by a judge or a hearing officer to legally establish paternity. In many states, you do not have to appear in court to establish your child’s paternity.
  • If the man you name as the father of your child denies being the father, or if you are unsure of who the father is, blood/genetic tests can be done. Usually a father will admit paternity when results of blood tests show he is the biological father of a child. If the father continues to believe he is not the father, he is entitled to a court hearing on the matter. At the hearing, a judge listens to both sides and looks at the test results.
    • Child Support Enforcement Agency - Paternity

  • You may seek financial support for your child in order to help pay for necessary living expenses. Under the law, your child is entitled to this support. The amount of your monthly child support payment is decided by the laws of the state in which you live. Child support orders require that the father provide financial support for his child until he or she becomes eighteen [(18) or older depending upon state law].
    Child Support Enforcement Agency - Paternity

  • Federal law requires states to allow a paternity action to be started any time before the child reaches the age of eighteen (18) or later depending upon state law.

    Child Support Enforcement Agency - Paternity

  • Regardless of the father’s current situation, his legal responsibility should be established as quickly as possible following your child’s birth. His support level (monthly payments) is based on his income level. When the father gets a job, collecting child support will be easier if paternity is already established.

    Family Council - Wraparound

    5

    • Over the last 10 years, the Publicly Funded Family and Child Serving Systems in Lucas County have had ongoing discussions about developing Wraparound as a process for serving inter-system involved children/youth and their families in Lucas County. This discussion has also dovetailed with discussions about developing a well coordinated “System of Care.” In May 2009, Neil Brown, a Wraparound Consultant associated with the National Wraparound Initiative was brought to Lucas County to do a presentation on Wraparound for public system leaders, staff and other stakeholders. Neil Brown gave an overview on Wraparound in terms of “What is it?” “How is it done?” and “How could we do it?” Additionally, we had presentations from Stark County and Butler County that gave us a practical look at how it has been implemented in two different counties. In May 2009, the Ohio Departments of Mental Health, Youth Services and ODADAS jointly issued a Request for Proposals called the Behavioral Health and Juvenile Justice Grant (BHJJ). The focus of this grant is specifically to reduce commitments of children and youth to the Ohio Department of Youth Services. Mental Health and Recovery Services of Lucas County (MHRSB), Lucas County Juvenile Court (LCJC), NAMI of Greater Toledo, and the Lucas County Family and Children First Council (LCFCFC) worked together to develop and submit a proposal, with MHRSB serving as the lead applicant agency and fiscal agent. We saw this grant as a tremendous opportunity to accomplish two objectives: 1. Develop Multisystemic Therapy for children/youth with identified and diagnosed mental health challenges and involvement with juvenile court. This is very intensive in-home therapeutic services that address the whole family situation. 2. Develop Wraparound on a smaller scale – addressing the BHJJ population – with the long-term goal of expanding Wraparound as our coordination model for intersystem involved children/youth and their families (with the goal of replacing the traditional Cluster model by July 1, 2010). The implementation of Wraparound has already begun for the BHJJ population with trained Wraparound Facilitators working out of NAMI of Greater Toledo and we are diligently working to plan and prepare for the transition from the traditional Cluster Model (currently called Creative Options) to Wraparound.
      Family Council - Wraparound

    • While there are still many details that will need to be addressed over the next five months, it is our intent, to transition to Wraparound as the coordination process for multi-system involved children/youth and their families. We are planning to have four full-time Wraparound Facilitators, hired, trained and ready to receive referrals by July 1, 2010. Currently we have 2.5 FTE Wraparound Facilitators in place working with the BHJJ population. The Cluster process, as it currently exists, will no longer continue after the full transition.
      Family Council - Wraparound

    • This is one of three core functions that the Cluster has served over the years. The other two core functions are Coordination and Special Assistance Funding. We recognize the importance of all three functions and are diligently working on ensuring that there is an identified process and structure to support all three functions. Coordination will continue through the implementation of the Wraparound Model. The functions of Placement and Special Assistance Funding will continue as key functions of our overall Intersystem Coordination Strategy though we have not yet completed work on identifying what the processes will be and the structure to support them. We will post key developments on these functions on this website.
      Family Council - Wraparound

    • We would encourage you to make sure to work with your supervisor/manager within your agency and ask if it would be truly beneficial to the child/youth and their family to make the referral, and to be clear on which of the three functions identified above you are trying to access. If after this consideration you still think that it would be beneficial to make the referral, you can proceed through the normal process within your agency with the referral. There will be no cutoff date on referrals, but you need to be clear, especially with families, that the coordination process or how you seek assistance for a placement or special assistance funding will be changing. It is not our intent to throw any curve balls to those of you in the trenches and so we will continue to get clear and up-to-date information out to you as quickly as possible to make sure you are well-informed on the processes and structure for the functions of Coordination, Placement, and Special Assistance Funding.
      Family Council - Wraparound

    • As we transition from the traditional Cluster model to the development of Wraparound Teams around each child/youth and their family involved in Coordination, there will still continue to be a need to utilize more formal services/supports as part of a whole range of options that would be considered to meet the various needs of a particular child/youth and their family. While there is a greater emphasis on utilizing natural supports in a child/youth and family’s life, this does not negate the importance of having access to and utilizing formal services/supports.

    Coroners Office

    14

    • Ohio Law requires that the Coroner investigate deaths of persons dying from criminal violence, by accident, suicide, suddenly, in detention, or any suspicious or unusual manner. When the identity of the deceased or next-of-kin is unknown, or a physician has not seen the deceased for a reasonable period of time, the body may be brought to the Coroner's Office. The Coroner may perform a forensic autopsy, investigate the circumstances of the death and issue a report.

      Coroners Office

    • A forensic autopsy is a primary tool used to find answers to the cause of a person's death. A series of tests, involving external and internal examination of the body, using surgical techniques and a set of medical standards, offers specialists an opportunity to determine the presence of an injury and/or to identify a disease that may have contributed to or caused a death. A forensic pathologist, a medical doctor specially trained to recognize patterns of injury, collect evidence and investigate the circumstances surrounding a death, performs an autopsy. Small samples of each organ are taken for microscopic examination. Other tests that may be performed include studying genes and checking for drugs, chemicals, or toxic substances.

      Coroners Office

    • There may be no autopsy in cases where evidence of natural death is present and no "foul play" is suspected. An autopsy will be performed in cases that result from a homicide, accident, suicide, in cases where the cause of death is not immediately evident or when the deceased is a young person who dies suddenly.

      Coroners Office

    • Discovering inherited or familial diseases may help families through early diagnosis and treatment and in family planning. ?Discovering an infectious disease, for example, tuberculosis, may lead to early diagnosis and treatment of other family members and close contacts. ?Uncovering evidence of a work-related hazard may lead to compensation for the family. ?Providing crucial evidence for the settling of insurance claims or death benefits may result in benefits for the family. ?Finding a specific cause of death may simply ease the stress of the unknown. Finding that diagnosis and treatment was appropriate may be comforting to the family.

      Coroners Office

    • There is no charge to the next-of-kin for an autopsy or for any of the tests, which may be conducted by the coroner.

      Coroners Office

    • Ohio Law (ORC 2108.52) provides that the Coroner does not need permission for an autopsy. The Office of the Coroner will attempt to comply with the wishes of the next-of-kin if this does not conflict with the duties of the Coroner as charged by Ohio Law.

      Coroners Office

    • Various counties in Ohio handle this procedure differently. In most cases, however, a signed death certificate will be issued within two weeks of the date of death. When there is insufficient information available to complete the death certificate in a timely fashion, or additional chemical tests, microscopic slide preparation and examination, and further investigations are needed – a "Pending further studies and Coroner's Verdict" death certificate can be issued. At the culmination of these tests and investigation, the ruling is made based on all available information. A supplemental death certificate, which supersedes, the "Pending" death certificate, is then issued with the cause of death and ruling.

      Coroners Office

    • The family may select a funeral director right away. Most often, the next-of-kin discusses the selection of a funeral director with other family members, clergy, or friends. The Office of the Coroner is prohibited from recommending a funeral director. The Lucas County Coroner's Office and the funeral directors work closely together to accommodate families' funeral arrangements.

      Coroners Office

    • Autopsies have been performed on individuals of all religious backgrounds. Religious decisions are always personal. You may want to discuss your decision with relatives and your spiritual advisors. Ohio law permits religious objections to Coroner's autopsies.

      Coroners Office

    • Usually, the property of the deceased is released to the funeral director for use as the family requests. In cases of homicide, some illnesses, or vehicular death, the Coroner or other investigating law enforcement agencies may hold the property for use as evidence.

      Coroners Office

    • The autopsy report, also called the protocol, usually takes about four weeks to be completed after the autopsy. If microscopic and chemical tests are performed, this time period can lengthen to six to eight weeks.

      Coroners Office

    • The death certificate is a public record and can be obtained from the Bureau of Vital Statistics. Coroner's records are not public records, but the Coroner's findings are released to the legal next-of-kin in some cases. Simply call the Lucas County Coroner's Office for more information.

      Coroners Office

    • ?Increasing knowledge about the cause and course of an illness and the effects of different types of treatment. ?Disclosing evidence of environmental hazards. ?Explaining the causes of injuries in accidents involving automobiles, falls, or other situations that could prevent further harm to the public. ?Helping to establish the cause and manner of death. ?Discovering trends when patterns of death emerge.

      Coroners Office

    • The performance of an autopsy should in no way affect a funeral or viewing of the body. The incisions from the autopsy can be concealed for the viewing service and funeral.
