At Blue KC, we’re always challenging ourselves to do more to improve the quality of life here in the Kansas City region. Our members depend on it. Our community depends on it. The future depends on it.
This year, we focused on solutions at the grassroots level to improve health outcomes for the community. We did everything from support research that addresses the nutritionally underserved to advocate for the availability of fresh foods in urban areas.
We’re still hungry to do more.
In order to best meet the health needs of our members, Blue KC took proactive measures to fully understand the social determinants of health.
In 2019, the Transforming KC Health Research Grant was restructured to align with efforts to address food insecurity in our community.
