Blue Shield of California Foundation supports lasting and equitable solutions to make California the healthiest state and end domestic violence.
About Us
80% of health outcomes are not tied to health care — which is why we target root causes in our work to promote health equity and end domestic violence. We have carefully honed our strategies to focus on the following three areas:
Who do you care for, and who cares for you?
Staying the course toward health equity and ending domestic violence.
For the estimated 16 million survivors of domestic/intimate partner violence and their children each year, their earthquakes happen in the shadows—creating physical and psychological trauma—or chronic PTSD. While this is well-documented and recognized, culturally, the effect of the trauma is often minimized or dismissed.
