I have found that the DHHR in Montgomery, AL is NO HELP at all when trying to collect child support for out of state shild support cases. My caseworker in NC has been trying to get enforcement on our case for 2 years, with little to no response from DHHR. There is a 10 day arrest order for my daughter's father, James Allen Strankman, and he has not been arrested once for non-payment in the 4 1/2 years that he has lived there to evade paying child support. DHHR is aware that he is almost $6000.00 in arrearages, and they continue to do nothing about his Non-support of our child. He is also supposed to provide medical coverage and pay half of all remaining medical, dental, and vision bills and he has NEVER done any of this.....and what does DHHR do, NOTHING!!! I have contacted them myself on numberous occasions and they always say that all communication has to be done through my caseworker here in NC. But, she gets no response from them either. I have contacted the governers office, the district attorney's office and the director of DHHR on county and state levels, and still he walks around, a man free of his obligations to his child, due to the lack of enforcement of DHHR Montgomery County, AL.\t\n\t\nI have been a single parent for 8 years now, and have taken care of my child with no help from him for the entire 8 years. I would say I am an expert on tracking him down, and communicatiing with him , however, DHHR doesn't seem to have the same abilities....even when they are provided a phone number, address, and place of employment. \t\n\t\nI have to say that with my personal dealings with the Montgomery County DHHR, I am sadly disappointed with their response to the needs of america's children that are owed child support and medical coverage by their "virtually non-existent, non-supporting, parents.\t\n\t\nThank you \t\nlmiller ...read more
