Blue Door Neighborhood Center^SM Now Open in Chicago’s Morgan Park Neighborhood

Educating our members and increasing access to health care where our members live, work and play is an ongoing priority at Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Illinois (BCBSIL). We are also committed to strengthening the health of communities across the state. As part of this commitment, we opened our second Blue Door Neighborhood Center (BDNC^SM) at 11840 S. Marshfield Ave. in the Morgan Park neighborhood of Chicago.

The BDNC is dedicated to helping improve health literacy for residents in Morgan Park, and surrounding communities and empower them to improve their overall health and well-being. Open to members and non-members, the BDNC is a community space that offers a variety of free programs and services aimed at improving community health.

At the center, we’ll be working to address common health challenges and access to care issues with free wellness classes, connections to social services, customer engagement and more. We’re looking to help make a positive impact on the health of our members, their families and the community.

BDNC gives BCBSIL the opportunity to partner with providers to truly make a difference in the lives of residents in our communities. During the COVID-19 pandemic, encourage your patients to visit the BDNC in Morgan Park online for more information, such as a monthly events calendar and building opening updates.
