PARMA’s vision is to assist Public Entity Risk Managers in achieving success in their careers and to provide Public Entities with the support they need to make their Risk Managers successful.

To help assist in funding, PARMA offers scholarships for the conference from both PARMA as an association and also through its chapters.
