Poor Fathers Need Help With Jobs to Pay Child Support
Urban Institute researches report poor fathers cannot hope to pay child support if they do not have access to some of the social services available to their children's mothers. Lack of education and poor job prospects make it difficult for many fathers to provide for their children, the report said. Researchers also found government programs favor mothers without providing job training or other assistance to fathers.
