The same five core routes in all 88 Ohio counties. Open any tile to see that category in the directory.
Child support & payments
Your county's Child Support Enforcement Agency (CSEA): payments, order review, modification requests, and arrears — through official channels, not shortcuts.

County court and domestic-relations pages, self-help centers, and Ohio Legal Help fallbacks — forms, dockets, filing, and fee waivers.
Open in the directoryLegal aid
Free and low-cost legal-aid intake for family law, with honest labels where a route is still a research lead or a gap. We point you there — we're not lawyers.
Open in the directory211 & mental health
Ohio 211 and the 988 Lifeline — housing, food, income support, mental health, and substance use, routed to your local answer center.
Open in the directoryParenting & fatherhood
Co-parenting classes, dad-focused support groups, and fatherhood.gov fallbacks that help you stay connected and show up stronger.

Why you can trust it
A directory we'd use ourselves
You've been handed enough runaround. Here's exactly what's behind every entry in BridgeBack Fathers.
Every entry shows its source
Each record carries a source URL, a last-verified date, and a correction path. You can check our work, and tell us when something's off.
Nothing invented, gaps labeled
If a source couldn't be reached, the entry is labeled a research lead or a gap — never dressed up as a verified service. Fallbacks are labeled fallbacks.
Honest price, honest product
$0.99 once — no subscription, no account, no ads. We point to the door; the organizations do the work.
BridgeBack Fathers is an informational directory — not legal advice, and not affiliated with any government agency. For urgent safety or crisis needs, call 911 or 988 as appropriate.
FAQ
Straight answers
The questions dads ask us most — answered without the runaround.
Is my Ohio county covered?
All 88 Ohio counties are researched and verified — five core routes per county, last checked August 5, 2026. Every entry is labeled honestly: verified route, verified fallback, research lead, or gap.
What about other states?
Ohio is complete. Other states stay available as route guides — honest, clearly labeled state-level fallbacks — until every county in them is researched and verified. We won't claim a state before it's done.
Is BridgeBack Fathers legal advice?
No. We're a resource finder. We point you to legal aid organizations, clinics, courts, and self-help centers that can explain your options — we don't give legal advice ourselves.
Why $0.99?
A small one-time price keeps the app independent and honest — no ads, no selling your data, no hidden fees. We'd rather charge a dollar than owe anyone.
Do I need to create an account?
No. There's no account and no email required to use the finder. Pick your Ohio county and see what's there.
