Paternity Establishment: Information for Practitioners Working with Unmarried Fathers.

This National Responsible Fatherhood Clearinghouse (NRFC) resource provides information on paternity establishment for practitioners who work with unmarried fathers. Laws and procedures vary from state to state; therefore, we provide information that is generally true across states, but recommend practitioners are prepared to discuss state-specific information with their participants. For help finding more information, you or the fathers you work with can call the NRFC Helpline at 1-877-4DAD-411. You can also go to our online state profiles, which include information about specific laws on paternity establishment for each state and territory.
