Paternity Matters

Paternity Matters was formed by the Office of Recovery Services in 2005 to teach about the paternity establishment process in Utah.

Paternity Matters focuses on three main goals:

• Provide training, supplies and support
  to individuals who work with unwed parents on the
  Voluntary Declaration of Paternity process in hospitals.
• Educate unwed parents about paternity
  establishment, methods of establishment, and benefits to the parents and children.
• Provide training and educational materials to community groups who work with unwed parents.

Paternity establishment is important to our communities, to unwed parents and most of all, to the children.

If you have an existing child support case with ORS; please contact your assigned team at 801-536-8500 with any questions.
