Welfare - Family Support Program This program is mandatory for all sole support parents and blended families with children from previous relationships. The overall purpose of this program is to PURSUE CHILD/SPOUSAL SUPPORT. The Ontario Works Act states: "... participants must make reasonable efforts to obtain all available income. For example: child and or spousal support to which any member of the benefit unit may be entitled." As a custodial parent in receipt of Welfare, it is mandatory to pursue any support money entitlements. The Family Law Act states: "Every parent has an obligation to provide support for his or her unmarried child who is a minor or is enrolled in a full time program of education, to the extent the parent is able to do so." In summary, an absent parent that is working has a legal obligation to pay support for their children.    Return To Welfare Department Welfare - Location Six Nations Welfare\ Six Nations Innovations P.
