Community Liaison Officers

Community groups can contact Child Support's community liaison officers for free education sessions on child support issues.

How our service can help

Child Support community liaison officers will:

  • talk to and educate communities about child support
  • visit organisations
  • make direct contact with groups such as prisons and schools
  • build relationships with those with an interest in child support, such as government and other specialist groups.

Community newsletter

Inland Revenue produces a community newsletter called Community-Wise. This is targeted at community groups and electorate offices and provides child support, Working for Families Tax Credits and student loan news.

You can get a copy of Community-Wise:

  • by downloading an issue from our library, or
  • through any of our community liaison officers.

You can also subscribe to automatically receive each new issue of Community-Wise.
