Denni Ritter, vice president of state government relations for the American Property Casualty Insurance Association, said insurers have been deeply involved in recovery efforts. “From the onset of the wildfires, insurers have been on the frontlines assisting customers with disaster recovery – proactively reaching out to impacted customers, setting up help centers, and deploying catastrophe teams to help residents get claims started and secure emergency housing, food, clothing and other resources in their time of need,” Ritter said.
