BLOOMFIELD, Conn., June 23, 2026 — The Cigna Group Foundation, the philanthropic arm of The Cigna Group (NYSE: CI), today announced $3 million in grants to 22 nonprofits working to improve youth mental health and strengthen support systems across 10 states. Youth mental health needs continue to outpace access to care in many communities, particularly for young people and families navigating limited resources.


"Too many young people still face barriers to getting the mental health support they need," said Ellie Polack, president of The Cigna Group Foundation. "We're proud to play a role in helping these organizations expand access to care, strengthen local support systems, and reach more youth and families earlier."
