All of us have been deeply affected by this growing crisis. We have had our insurance policies cancelled or seen dramatic increases in our premiums and now face a very uncertain future. Join us for presentations and a panel discussion, featuring representatives of government, industry, and consumer advocacy groups. We have designed this discussion to give a 360-degree view of the problem, the efforts underway to fix it, and what the future holds.
