Property Program Grants
Are you part of the Property Program? Your entity is eligible to apply for a Property Program Grant, which includes up to $25k per member, per fiscal year, on a matching basis. Funds may be used for risk control programs and projects designed to reduce exposures associated with the Property Program.

One great way to use these matching funds is to protect vacant buildings. Applications should be submitted to the PRISM Risk Control Department by Tuesday, January 30th to be considered at the next Property Committee Meeting. For additional information check out the FAQ’s and please do not hesitate to contact Doug McGill
Pass the Baton Mentorship
The Pass the Baton Mentorship (PBM) program is off to a great start this new year. We have monthly drop-in meetings with an experienced risk professional to answer all your questions. Additionally, we will be conducting a quarterly round table to discuss how we can improve the program for the benefit of the participants. With the flurry of new jobs, people, and events, we believe the PBM Program is a valuable asset PRISM Members should take full advantage of. We encourage you to join the program as either a mentor, mentee, or both! Click here to read the latest PBM Newsletter, and for any questions please reach out to Skylar Golding.
