Who We Insure

Insurance for Community Development Organizations

The Specifics

What actually goes
wrong here.

01

Public events and gatherings

Convening the public is a core function, and event exposure is often the largest single risk a small organization carries.

02

Volunteer boards making decisions

Governance decisions by a volunteer board create management liability exposure regardless of the organization’s size.

03

Property and shared space

Many hold, lease or manage community space, which brings property and premises exposure alongside the programming.

What We'd Place

usually calls for.

Every organization is different — this is the usual starting point, not a fixed list.

How We Work

We read the contract
before we quote it.

Since 1986 we have placed coverage for the organizations that care for people across California — nonprofit and for-profit alike. That means reading the funding contract, the lease and the program description before we go to market, so the policy matches how you actually operate.

We also include free unlimited access to HR specialists, and we don’t charge a broker fee with most of our insurance programs.

Questions

Questions we
get asked.

Size does not remove the exposure. A volunteer board still makes decisions that can be challenged, and D&O funds the defense.
Often yes — special events coverage is scoped to a specific date and location, and is particularly relevant if alcohol is served.
Yes — member and donor records are exactly what cyber liability is written to protect.
