If the father was paying you directly, the payments will, of course, cease. If this is the case you must contact the state for assistance.

Does receiving welfare make you exempt from paying child support?

Hopefully not... It doesn't exempt you from being a parent. Recipients of SSI cannot be ordered to pay child support. In general, State courts will not order public assistance recipients to pay child support. Child support obligations cannot be garnished from SSI or public assistance payments.
