Topic:

USDA Insurance – Making Sure Your Clubs and Dancers are Covered

Program Description:

Every square dance organization needs General Liability and Accident Medical Expense coverage while conducting and sponsoring dance activities. As closely as safety rules are followed, accidents can and will happen. This insurance program, especially designed for USDA dance groups, provides Accident Medical insurance, which helps protect club members from financial loss due to a covered accidental bodily injury, and Liability insurance, which protects the club and its members and association officials from financial loss due to unforeseen incidents which may develop into litigation against members and dance organizations.

USDA’s Insurance Coordinator Elizabeth Sanders will outline the Insurance program, including answering the questions “Which form do I use to request a certificate?” and “Which form is used to register students for Insurance?” Tune in for more on the different forms and what they are used for, as well as the proper way to enter your club or affiliate’s information into the insurance database.
