Membership

Membership in MCIT is a privilege.  Entities applying for membership must demonstrate they are entitled to the immunities and the tort limits offered in Minnesota Statute 466. Entities requesting membership must also demonstrate a commitment to risk management and loss control.  MCIT reserves the right to decline membership to any entity that may pose a threat to the fiscal health of MCIT.
