Abstract: The Safe Access for Victims’ Economic Security (SAVES) Demonstration is a five-year project funded by Office of Child Support Enforcement (OCSE) in the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) to increase safe access to child support, parenting time, and establishment of parentage services for survivors of domestic violence (DV). One of the main purposes of SAVES is to build the evidence and knowledge base to better serve survivors of DV in the child support program. This information collection is necessary to guide improvements in service delivery and ensure the child support program effectively provides child support enforcement to survivors of DV.
