National Flood Conference 2022 | American Property Casualty Insurance Association (APCIA) | 5 June 2022 | Omni Shoreham Hotel, 2500 Calvert St NW, Washington, DC 20008, USA

With Risk Rating 2.0 still being fully implemented and a long-term solution to the National Flood Insurance Program an ever-elusive goal, there is no shortage of issues for flood insurance professionals to discuss and examine.

This Conference is the perfect forum to do just that while networking with your fellow colleagues and stakeholders.

While the last two virtual events have been informative and enjoyable, we welcome a return to an in-person conference and returning to Washington, D.C., the focal point of so much that affects flood insurance.

APCIA encourages attendees to be fully vaccinated and test on their own prior to attending this event. APCIA will continue to monitor the guidelines provided by federal, state, and local agencies and will retain the flexibility to adjust our plans accordingly. The health and safety of our members, staff, and conference attendees is and will remain a top priority.
