AAC RMF Philosophy
The Risk Management Fund was created in 1986 to serve county-specific needs for protection. The Risk Management Fund is not insurance; it is a fund that combines the resources of member counties to provide stable and competitive pricing. Member counties can manage actual risk through good loss control practices and obtain protection without paying for protection not needed while preserving tort immunity.
The Protection
- General Liability (Civil Rights Liability)
- Auto Liability & Physical Damage
- Property
- Volunteer Fire Dept Programs
Member Benefits
- Guardian RFID
- Codification
- CDL Drug Testing — National Medtest
- Justice Bridge
The Proprietorship

Jimmy Hart, Conway County Judge
John Montgomery, Baxter County Sheriff
Brandon Ellison, Polk County Judge
Shane Jones, Pope County Sheriff
Stacey Avey, Stone County Judge
Ruby Dillion, Arkansas County Treasurer
Tim Ryals, Faulkner County Sheriff
