NEW YORK MARRIOTT AT THE BROOKLYN BRIDGE
(August 19, 2005 – New York) - The National African-American Insurance Association (www.naaia.org), formed in 1997 was created specifically to address the needs of the ever-increasing number of African-Americans in the insurance arena. In an effort to continue to heighten awareness and increase membership in its organization, the NAAIA will host its annual conference for African-American insurance professionals September 8th – 10th at The Brooklyn Marriott located at 333 Adams Street in Downtown Brooklyn. The conference will run daily from Thursday, September 8 culminating in a dinner gala on Friday, September 9, 2005.
The lineup for this year’s conference will include a host of diverse exhibitors and presentations as well as many notable guest speakers, such as the Honorable William Thompson, Controller of New York City, Professor Richard Bennett, Associate Professor and member of the faculty of St. John’s University’s school of Risk Management and Actuarial Science at the Peter J. Tobin College of Business, and Dr. Harold Gray, Director of the Center for Insurance Education and the Center for Professional Development at Howard University. The conference promises to be an exciting journey through the changes and challenges facing African-Americans in the insurance industry today and those on the horizon. Additionally, conference topics such as "Employment Practices Liability Insurance: The Legal Environment and How It Works", “Critical Thinking” and “FloodSmart 101” are sure to inspire insightful dialogue and generate innovative thoughts and ideas among participants.
As outlined on its website, www.naaia.org, the main purpose of the NAAIA is to “create a network among minorities who are employed by insurance companies or self-employed in the insurance industry.” The organization has grown tremendously since its inception with new chapters nationwide. It is the NAAIA’s mission to “coordinate the national efforts of the African-American Insurance organizations and professionals.” The NAAIA plans to continue to build its organization by engaging in activities such as planning and promoting various national conferences, generating quarterly newsletters, and serving as one of the premier resources for African-American insurance professionals across the nation. This organization has only just begun to spread its wings. In the years to come, the NAAIA will be the organization to watch as it soars to new heights in both the African-American insurance world and the insurance world alike.
