The webinars aim to address the critical gap in flood insurance coverage in North Carolina, where many residents mistakenly rely on homeowners' policies that do not cover flood damage. This lack of coverage has left thousands vulnerable to financial losses following severe weather events. By educating professionals, the NCDOI hopes to improve public understanding of flood risks and encourage broader adoption of flood insurance. The sessions also emphasize the importance of updated flood maps and preparedness measures to mitigate future risks.
