For more than 80 years, Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Illinois has focused on improving the health of our communities. To build on that legacy, we opened our first-ever neighborhood center in Chicago’s historic Pullman neighborhood and have since opened two additional centers in South Lawndale and Morgan Park.
The Blue Door Neighborhood CenterSM is a space to learn, connect and focus on your health. We want to empower you to make a difference in your health. In particular, we aim to help you work to improve your health in the following areas:
- Nutrition
- Fitness
- Parent and child wellness
- Mental health
- Heart health
- Diabetes Prevention and Management
- Asthma management
The center is not a clinic. We don’t provide health services. But, we are a place where you can attend classes, workshops and get access to community resources.
At BCBSIL, we understand that where you live and work has a direct effect on your access to care—and that has a direct effect on your wellbeing. Our goal is to look for ways to improve the health of the community by helping you focus on your wellness and connecting you to supportive resources.
