STRIVE program
(Strive Towards Reaching Individual Vitality and Energy)

Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Vermont believes in good health – for its employees as well as its members. Vermont’s only local health insurance company is a three-time winner of worksite wellness awards from the state of Vermont. The company’s STRIVE program (Strive Towards Reaching Individual Vitality and Energy) offers its more than 350 employees financial incentives for participating in health improvement initiatives. BCBSVT also provides for employees on-site fitness rooms and fitness classes, a monthly wellness seminar, locker facilities, lactation facilities, a wellness library and other programs designed to encourage fitness and health improvement.

Reaching beyond its own facilities, BCBSVT’s Walk At Lunch Day program, part of a national initiative by the country’s BCBS plans, now includes thousands of Vermont participants who lace up their walking shoes and head out for a vigorous lunch-time walk to improve their own health and encourage fitness in their communities.
