Child support collection up over last year The Mississippi Department of Human Services (MDHS) Division of Child Support Enforcement (CSE) recently received congratulations from the U.S. Health Human Services, Atlanta office, for its increased collection rate. More than $48 million dollars in child support on payments was collected behalf of deserving Mississippi children during the federal fiscal year (FFY) that ended September 30, 1992. This represents an increase of over FFY 1991. "This is great news," said Sue Hathorn, executive director of the Mississippi Department of Human Services (MDHS).

"We knew our child support enforcement officers had been working hard 1 to meet guidelines and standards, not to mention to overcome sanctions, but this is more than we dreamed possible." CSE had consistently reported increased collections through the use of income withholding by employers and state and federal income tax refund offsets. This past year, more cooperation was sought, and gained, from public officials who play a major role in obtaining and collection child support obligations. "Credit for the significant increase goes to enhanced application of proven collection methods, as well as the lifting of the state hiring freeze in January, 1992 which allowed us to fill vacancies that occurred during 1991," explained Clara Nell Taylor, director of the Division of Child Support Enforcement. MDHS plans to ask the 1993 Legislature to include the reporting of new hires and the intercepting of unemployment benefits to the list of ways the public can join with MDHS to ensure that all children are supported by both parents, not just the one who has custody. In addition, legislators will be asked to amend to make it easier to include unpaid court- Obituaries Arthur Greer Funeral services for Mr.
