We started Equip with a simple but bold vision: to transform the broken system that leaves too many people without the care they deserve, and ensure that everyone struggling with an eating disorder has access to evidence-based treatment. Today, we are thrilled to announce that Kerry Washington has joined our journey as an advisor and investor in Equip.

There isn’t a better time to announce her investment than during this year’s Eating Disorder Awareness Week, which is dedicated to shedding light on the realities of eating disorders, challenging misconceptions, and advocating for more access to treatment.

Kerry is more than an award-winning actress, producer, and director. She is a fierce advocate for social justice and mental health who has used her voice and platform for years to elevate underrepresented communities and push for meaningful change. When we first met with Kerry, we immediately saw how deeply aligned her values are with Equip’s mission.

Like us, Kerry believes that eating disorders don’t discriminate—but, unfortunately, access to treatment often does. With Kerry’s partnership, we are doubling down on our commitment to reaching those needing virtual, evidence-based care.

Kerry’s involvement is more than just an investment; it’s a partnership built on shared values and a bias toward action. We will continue to work tirelessly to:

Expand our reach so that more people can access life-saving treatment, no matter where they live.

Destigmatize eating disorders and change the conversation about who they affect and who needs treatment.

At Equip, we believe full recovery is possible and that everyone deserves the chance to heal. With Kerry on our team, we are even more confident in our ability to make that vision a reality. This is just the beginning, and we couldn’t be more excited about what’s to come.
