'New Mexico’s Governor Susana Martinez is celebrating August being Child Support Awareness Month by kicking off a pilot project. The Felony Prosecution Project will seek the prosecution of the state’s worst child support offenders for the abandonment of a child, which is a fourth degree felony under New Mexico law.
It is aimed at increasing the collection of child support from parents who are among the worst offenders at failing to honor their obligations to financially support their children. The project will be a partnership between the New Mexico Human Services Department Child Support Enforcement Division and the District Attorneys’ offices.'
