Belonging is GOOD Business

The San Francisco Chapter of NAIW is a group that includes insurance company personnel, retail and wholesale brokers, attorneys, claims personnel, surety professionals, and accountants, all committed to education and professional development. The association is open to anyone in the insurance and risk management fields, and the organizations that serve our industry (Auto Body Shops, Restoration Companies; Premium Finance, etc.) and provides mentors and role models, practical tools and information needed to succeed and the motivation and support to accomplish your goals.

General luncheon meetings are held on the 3rd Tuesday of each month, except for months with special events (May NAIW Week Luncheon, June Installation, October Industry Luncheon and our Holiday Luncheon in December).
