Outcomes are based on an independent evaluation conducted in June 1999 by Dr. William Blount, Chairman of the Department of Criminology at the University of South Florida.

• The Program is strongly endorsed by local judges, the Department of Revenue, and the Clerk of the Courts.
  
  
• In the first four months of 1999, the program generated $4.00 of revenue to the State, as recorded by the Department of Revenue, for every $1.00 spent for the program.
  
  
• Noncustodial parents in NCEP are more involved with their children, and report seeing their children about twice as often as before entering the program.
  
  
• In mid-November 1998, total child support dollars collected by the State exceeded all total cumulative costs associated with the program. This milestone was reached 31 months after the program began. Since then, child support dollars collected have consistently outstripped program costs by an ever increasing margin.
  
  
• In the 16 months ending in May 1999, total dollars collected by the Department of Revenue from program clients exceeded the costs necessary to serve those clients by $1.2 million.
  
  
• 55% of all program-generated child support collections posted by the Department of Revenue come from clients who are no longer in the program, but continue to pay their child support. This total currently exceeds $1.1 million.
  
  
• The program's impact on other public assistance programs was positive, as demonstrated by a sample of 140 clients who reported a 73% decline in receiving food stamps, a 24% reduction in custodial parents receiving public assistance, and the removal of 75 children from Medicaid by being added to the noncustodial parent's medical insurance.
