Marking a Milestone!

It’s an historic year for NIRMA, and we’re planning to mark this milestone throughout the year with special activities, events, and features.

NIRMA became the first governmental risk management pool of its kind in Nebraska in January 1988.  For 20 years our sole focus has been on Nebraska counties, helping them reduce their liability exposures, losses, and insurance costs. And we’ve grown from 32 charter member counties in 1988 to serving 78 counties today.

So we invite you to check our Web site often, as NIRMA celebrates its 20th anniversary throughout 2008.

Who would have envisioned? Dividends reach $10 million milestone!
