"We learn from one another and share our experiences and perspectives creating a community where there is a strong sense of belonging for employees.
"Regardless of race, gender identity, ethnicity, sexual orientation, physical ability or other aspects."

Recognizing needs
Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan has a multi-year strategy to help improve health outcomes and partners with providers, community organizations and other stakeholders to increase access to quality health care.
We build strong relationships with colleges and professional organizations to recruit talent. We were the first employer in Wayne County to partner with Project SEARCH to help young adults with disabilities transition from school to work environments.
Employees share their experiences and perspectives through 11 Employee Resource Networks, known as ERNs. The ERN program strengthens our commitment to an inclusive workplace by bringing together employees who have a common interest to learn, share experiences and perspectives, engage, and influence our workplace culture. The ERNs also provide professional development opportunities and insightful perspectives to make our business better. More than 30 percent of Blue Cross employees are a member of a least one ERN. All ERNs are open to any employee who is interested in joining.
