Communities

Expanding Access

We believe in the power of community and collective action to advance our goal to expand access to care and opportunities across Illinois.

With more than $19 million invested in 2024 in grants and sponsorships, we’re building on the knowledge, experience and talents of community organizations and partners to address social and economic factors that influence health in our communities.
