RISA was established to perform an educational role for local members – a forum in which to share best practices and discuss recent developments of new cases and overall impacts and changes to the industry. This resource library is a repository of briefing notes, white papers, articles and news stories that we hope users will find useful. We encourage anyone who has material they would like to share through this site to send it to us at events@risa.ky.
