We’re here to help. Call us at 1-800-716-3468.

Child Find of America offers free, confidential*, telephone-based services to parents in conflict. We help fragile families explore safe, legal options and available support systems.

When you call us, you will gain access to our comprehensive information and referral network. Our skilled professionals provide connections to the resources and support systems that you need to resolve your family conflicts.

How We Can Help

Case managers provide guidance in creating manageable solutions for the caller and their child, such as creating workable parenting plans concerning custody and visitation, building communication and parenting skills, understanding legal options, and learning how to navigate the court and support systems. The option of mediation is assessed and offered when appropriate.

Our case managers have addressed a variety of family issues with callers, including co-parenting challenges, parental abduction prevention, domestic violence, child abuse or neglect concerns, and parenting styles.

We also provide consultation and information to allied service professionals.

Callers seeking assistance from us must be the parents/caretakers of children 17 or younger, although the age limit may be extended in the event of legal guardianship due to a child’s mental/physical condition or on-going support obligations.

* Child Find does not share caller information with others, including family members, without the caller’s consent. Our staff will neither confirm nor deny whether a person has contacted us. Please note that confidentiality may be waived if any caller presents an immediate danger to themselves or others (i.e. suicide, homicide).
