Managing parenting, financial obligations, co-parenting dynamics, and life stressors can take a toll on your mental health. The National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) has support groups for individuals and families of those with mental health conditions. Taking care of your mental health helps you show up stronger—not just for yourself, but for your children too.

Ohio’s Positive Parenting Program (Triple P) provides free online resources to help support parents and caregivers in promoting children’s well-being and making family life more enjoyable.

Many of our children may be struggling with their mental health long before anyone realizes it. Providing medical insurance for your child isn’t just about physical health. It opens the door to counseling, early intervention, and the support they may need to thrive emotionally and mentally.

Financial stability is an essential part of creating a safe, secure home. When support is inconsistent, families can face ongoing stress and uncertainty. Consistent child support helps ease that burden, giving caregivers the stability they need to focus on nurturing their children.

Child support can be a critical component in preventing child abuse and neglect. Consistent financial support can help parents have the resources they need to provide a stable environment for their children.

Thank you for providing valuable information to our attendees!

Excited to be part of the Ohio Child Support Professionals Association 2026 Spring Symposium—a two-day virtual event bringing together leaders across Ohio’s Child Support programs.

I have the opportunity to kick things off this morning with my session:
Morale in Uncertain Times: Leading Child Support Teams Through High Caseloads & Tight Budgets

If you’re in this space, you know the reality:
👉 High demand that doesn’t let up
👉 Staffing challenges
👉 Budget uncertainty
👉 And teams doing meaningful, often heavy work every single day

While my focus is Child Support/JFS agencies, these challenges are felt across industries —and the role of leadership has never been more important.

I’m also proud that 821 Consulting is a sponsor of this event. Supporting associations like OCSPA that invest in their members, create space for real conversations, and strengthen leadership across our agencies is work that matters.

OCSPA continues to be an incredible resource for professionals doing this important work—and I’m grateful to be part of it.

💬 For those attending—what are you hoping to take away from these next two days?

❓Is your organization in need of guidance on this topic? Contact me for more information on how we can partner to help your leaders manage the uncertainties!!

One in seven children experienced abuse or neglect in the past year. Safe, stable homes—supported by financial security—are essential to child well-being. Everyone has a role to play in preventing abuse and neglect. For assistance with establishing a child support order, contact your county child support agency.
