Due to the legal risk involved in a church’s lay counseling ministry and other spiritual care ministries, it’s vital to develop a liability insurance strategy. There are several liability coverages in an organization’s insurance policy that are potentially relevant. As a church specialty insurer, Brotherhood Mutual designs insurance programs specifically for churches and other ministries.
Occurrence vs. Claims-made
Insurance plays a key role in managing risk related to lay counseling as well as to church operations generally. It’s important for church leaders to know whether the church’s insurance policy or policies provide coverage on an “occurrence” or “claims-made” basis.
Churches should seek the advice of their insurance agent about this important coverage distinction, and especially before changing from one type of insurance policy to another.
Thank you for your interest in Brotherhood Mutual. We appreciate the opportunity to provide your church or other ministry with an insurance quote and will reply to your request as soon as possible.
