WELCOME TO POOL/PACT, A MEMBER-BASED POOL & COMPENSATION TRUST
This website serves as a portal to serve our members. The Nevada Public Agency Insurance Pool (POOL) was formed in 1987. By pooling resources, Nevada public entities discovered that they could obtain property casualty coverage at a reasonable cost, and access risk management resources superior to those previously offered to smaller, rural municipalities. The Public Agency Compensation Trust was formed in 1996 to provide workers compensation coverage. POOL/PACT members include counties, cities, school districts, special districts and towns. Every member actively manages the risks encountered as a public agency.
