Abstract	The Families Forward Demonstration (FFD) examined new strategies to increase the earnings of parents who owe child support but are unable to fully meet their obligations due to low earnings. It also focused on "responsive" child support services that helped parents understand their support obligations, and even suspended certain enforcement actions while parents participated in the program. Child support agencies in five locations implemented FFD: Cuyahoga County, Ohio; Franklin County, Ohio; Calhoun and Jackson counties in Michigan; New York City; and Benton and Franklin counties in Washington State. They operated the program in partnership with local colleges, training providers, workforce development agencies, and community-based organizations that offered screening and enrollment, employment, and training services. The child support agencies began designing their FFD programs in 2016 and launched the programs between 2018 and 2019 as they finalized their plans for service delivery and partnerships. This report presents the findings from the implementation and outcome studies of FFD. (ERIC).
