About Blue Cross Blue Shield of Arizona Foundation for Community & Health Advancement

The Blue Cross Blue Shield of Arizona Foundation funds Arizona-based nonprofits and programs that reduce health disparities and strengthen community health across all 15 counties, with a particular emphasis on rural and underserved regions. Its strategic investments prioritize mental health (including maternal mental health), substance use disorder prevention and treatment, chronic disease management, and initiatives that advance health equity and local workforce capacity. Grants tend to support direct-service programs, prevention/early-intervention efforts, and capacity-building or workforce pipelines (e.g., nursing education, scholarships).
