Note from the CEO

What happens when you experience severe weather and your home or business takes significant damage?  Does your insurance cover the expense of temporary housing if you cannot live in your home while repairs are being made?  Has the building code in your town changed since you bought or built? Will your insurance cover the added expense to bring your home up to code when you are repairing after a storm? 

These are important questions to ask. Call your agent today and use the 10 questions in the new Insurance Shopper's Guide to decipher your policy. 

 
Recovering after a damaging storm is stressful enough, improve your outcome by making informed decisions. Tell everyone you know (this includes the stranger in the checkout line at the supermarket on their phone discussing their roof) about the DontGoof.org site.

Thank you for all you do to support stronger, sustainable, more resilient communities - 

Julie Shiyou-Woodard, President and CEO
