How to Apply - Health Care Providers
If you qualify as a legally-protected health care worker who provides gender-affirming care or reproductive care, you may apply to participate in the Address Confidentiality Program (ACP).
As an ACP participant, you will receive an alternate address to use when interacting with state and local government agencies, such as the Registry of Motor Vehicles, to prevent the creation of new public records listing your actual address. You will also be eligible for confidential voter registration, to keep your name off public voter rolls.
Please note: Health care providers who apply to ACP are not required to relocate as a condition of acceptance. If you do not relocate, ACP cannot protect against prior disclosures of your address.
Follow the steps listed below to apply to participate in ACP as a health care provider.
