What We Are Doing
Providing Care For All
Equitas Health will continue to provide gender-affirming care. We will continue to follow internationally established guidelines for that care. Unlike Gov. DeWine’s proposed rule changes, medical experts developed these guidelines, placing patient care at the forefront.

What You Can Do
Make your voice heard!
Let the state know how you feel about HB 68 and Gov. DeWine’s proposed administrative rule changes. Tell them that gender-affirming care saves lives. Remind them that healthcare decisions should be made by patients and their healthcare providers – not politicians.
Follow the ACLU of Ohio.
The ACLU of Ohio filed a lawsuit challenging HB 68, citing that it violates four sections of the Ohio Constitution. Follow their page for updates about the lawsuit.
Contact Gov. Mike DeWine!
JCARR recommended that the General Assembly validate two of the anti-trans administrative rules, but the five other anti-trans administrative rules were marked as TBR (to be refiled). Contact Gov. DeWine and tell him: gender affirming care IS healthcare; these proposed anti-trans rules are dangerous, discriminatory, and completely unnecessary; and he should formally rescind any and all anti-trans administrative rules.
