In 1981, Jim Reed opened a small, independent insurance agency in Salem, Oregon. His primary focus was to provide insurance coverages and risk-management services to local ministries. His commitment was to serve these organizations with the kind of service that has become increasingly rare. The kind where clients receive professional, non-biased advice and expertise with no strings attached.
Nearly 40 years later, over 1,000 ministries and other non-profit organizations have chosen to partner with James Reed & Associates. Our clients are still served by a family-owned agency where they come first. Although we leverage some of the best technology to serve clients, we still provide that feel-good, person-to-person service and expertise that our clients value and appreciate.
As an independent agency, we have partnered with over a dozen different insurance companies.

This allows us to build insurance solutions to fit the specific needs of each organization we serve.
In addition to providing insurance solutions for ministries and non-profits, we also are a full service agency for personal home, auto, term-life insurance, and more! We can also provide insurance coverages for small commercial businesses.
