Child Support

Upholding Tribal Sovereignty Through Child Support Services

The Nooksack Child Support Program works to ensure that all children receive the financial support they deserve from their parents.

Having a strong tribal child support program is a way for the Nooksack Tribe to exercise its sovereignty. Rather than Tribal members being sent to the Washington State Division of Child Support, they are served by the Tribe: in Tribal Court by Tribal Staff.
