September is Su***de Prevention Awareness Month. To the emergency service organization professionals who show up for our communities every day: thank you. The strength it takes to serve others is extraordinary—and asking for support is a sign of strength, too. This month, let’s check in on the people who carry so much. A simple conversation, a listening ear, or a reminder that they are not alone can make a meaningful difference. If you or someone you know is in crisis or needs support, call or text 988 to reach the Su***de & Crisis Lifeline. ***dePreventionAwarenessMonth

As the days get shorter, deer become much more active and are more likely to cross roadways — especially around dawn and dusk. This increased activity can pose serious risks to drivers, and hitting a deer can be a distressing and upsetting experience.

With that in mind, our team wants to share a few reminders to help keep you and your passengers safe this season and navigate the aftermath of striking a deer. Swipe for more.

If you're not sure what your current policy includes or would like to review your coverage this fall, feel free to reach out. Our team would be happy to answer your questions and help you understand your options.

Earlier this month, our team attended the 2026 “Water on the Mountain” West Virginia Rural Water Association Conference at Oglebay Resort. It was a valuable opportunity to hear directly from public service districts across the state about their needs and concerns—and to discuss ways we can better support them. We are grateful to the dedicated water and wastewater professionals who work every day to serve communities throughout West Virginia. It is an honor to sponsor and support such an important organization.

With back-to-school season top of mind and August being National Traffic Awareness Month, our team wanted to take a moment to share some practical road safety reminders for this time of year.

The return to school brings one of the most significant changes in daily traffic patterns of the entire year. A few moments of extra caution can make an enormous difference. Swipe for a few traffic safety considerations for both motorists and parents of young children to keep in mind as back-to-school season approaches.

By staying alert, following the rules, and looking out for the most vulnerable people on our roads, we can all play a role in keeping the roads safe this school year.

Please feel free to share this with anyone in your network who might benefit from these reminders. And if you ever have questions or need assistance, we are always here to help leverage our expertise for your benefit.

Last week, our team attended the 98th Annual West Virginia Firefighters Association Convention in Parkersburg, WV, where we discussed current issues facing first responders across our state.

At Bill Bailey Insurance Agency/VFIS, we take pride in supporting the dedicated men and women who serve their communities. Our goal is to provide fast, reliable service that helps keep emergency service organizations protected and operational.

We also appreciate the VFIS Risk Control and Education team for sharing valuable insight on ways departments can reduce risk, protect their members, and help keep the public safe.

Thank you to West Virginia’s firefighters for your continued dedication to the communities you serve!
