On the social functions of the state alimony fund

Abstract

The article highlights the social functions of the alimony fund, the creation of which, in the author’s opinion, should optimize the problem of non-payment of parental alimony in a post-divorce situation. Such functions include collection, ensuring and informational. The essence of each of these functions is briefly analyzed. The problem of departmental affiliation of the alimony fund in connection with the certainty of its social functions is analyzed. The necessity of formation of values of involved parenthood (involved fatherhood) among young people, especially young fathers, as a prevention of evasion from alimony payment in a possible post-divorce situation is postulated.
