• GCWW is not doing any water disconnections during our current state of emergency.  If a customer had been disconnected prior to this moratorium, they can contact GCWW to ask for their water to be restored.
• Duke is also not disconnecting electric/gas service at this time.  If a customer has been disconnected prior to the moratorium, they can call Duke to request that their service be restored.  The number they should call is 1-800-544-6900  Customers will likely still receive disconnection notices as Duke has not been able to quickly edit their automatic billing system to stop the notices being sent out.

  Interact for Health is pleased to provide funding so that three Cincinnati Health Department dental centers can remain open to handle urgent oral health needs. Patients must call any of the locations first for an evaluation by telephone or video call. If an office visit is necessary, patients will be contacted immediately to schedule an appointment. The centers accept Medicaid and most major private insurance and offer income-based fees for patients without insurance.
