Permanent options for long-term financial planning
Supplemental Coverage for City of Reno Employees
The City of Reno serves as the hub of northern Nevada's growing technology and logistics economy, and its municipal workforce reflects the region's expanding needs. City employees in engineering, planning, utilities, and public safety administration benefit from stable employment and PERS retirement — but their group life coverage often leaves family income significantly exposed. Individual supplemental life insurance from an A-rated (A.M. Best) carrier provides meaningful protection for Reno city employees, portability through career changes, and permanent options that grow alongside a northern Nevada career. Agents in our network serve the Reno-Sparks metro area.
Guarantees are backed by the financial strength and claims-paying ability of the issuing insurance carrier. No personalized coverage recommendation is made — work with a licensed agent to determine what is right for your situation.
