Description
The National Flood Insurance Program, or NFIP, was created to help the U.S. deal with the impact of flooding. Two statutes, The National Flood Insurance Act of 1968 and the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, govern the NFIP. Congress established this program in response to growing flood losses that strained insurance companies and escalated the costs of disaster relief to U.S. taxpayers. In this course, we'll talk about the goals of the NFIP and how community participation in the program works. We'll also discuss NFIP coverage.
