The Public Risk Management Association (PRIMA) is dedicated to increasing risk management professionalism in public agencies. Established in 1978, PRIMA is a membership organization for public sector risk management practitioners around the globe. The association advises public agencies on liability and other expenses that affect their operations.

PRIMA serves the interests of its member entities, their designated representatives and the general public by promoting and encouraging effective risk management in public agencies and by promoting and advancing the profession of risk management as an integral part of public administration.

MoPRIMA is Born
On April 19,1990, the University of Missouri Governmental Affairs Program Department set up the first statewide meeting forming a Missouri PRIMA Chapter. Since that time, MoPRIMA has met four times a year, with the spring meeting serving as a two-day annual conference.

MoPRIMA was formed to expand opportunities to exchange information about Risk Management at the local level, to contact others in the field with similar interests and problems, and to facilitate governmental risk management representation on a state and local level.

Who would benefit from becoming a member of MoPRIMA?
Our membership includes representatives from state government, municipalities, counties, pools, school districts, housing authorities, universities, utility districts, water districts, highway authorities, and service providers.
