We are the only group in America that offers its members a comprehensive alternative for insuring their volunteers. Our volunteer liability insurance program's approach better protects volunteers and, even more importantly, it substantially reduces the organization's exposure to a volunteer-related claim. It’s a win-win alternative, and it’s the only volunteer insurance policy of its kind.
