About Public Promise Insurance Agency
Public Promise Insurance Agency (PPI) is the insurance and employee benefits affiliate of the National Association of Counties (NACo)—the only national organization representing America’s 3,069 county governments. Built on NACo’s trusted reputation and extensive network of county leaders, PPI delivers innovative, member-focused insurance and workforce solutions designed specifically for county governments. Our portfolio helps counties strengthen employee recruitment, retention, financial wellness, and healthcare affordability while improving the overall value delivered to public servants.
