Blue Cross Blue Shield, NASCAR Foundation highlight mental health through McLean County grant
Blue Cross Blue Shield of Illinois and NASCAR Foundation are supporting Central Illinois mental health efforts through a surprise $30,000 grant to the McLean County Center for Human Services [MCCHS].
The three organizations held a news conference Thursday — World Mental Health Day 2024 — at the Bloomington-based health and social service provider's building at 520 N. Center St. to share the good news. MCCHS CEO Joan Hartman told WGLT she had no idea the agency was even being considered for the grant.
“We were floored because there's just so many great facilities and great agencies out there,” she said.
