California Nonprofit Insurance

Coverage Built Around California Nonprofit Risks

California Nonprofit Insurance helps address the risks faced by nonprofit organizations, associations, foundations, and community-service providers. Nonprofits must protect their mission while managing employees, volunteers, directors, programs, property, fundraising, and the people they serve. Coverage should be built around operations rather than nonprofit status alone.

What can Nonprofit Insurance include?

Coverage is tailored to the organization, and no single policy includes every exposure. Depending on operations, a program may include:

  • General liability: may respond to covered third-party bodily injury, property damage, and personal or advertising injury claims.
  • Directors and officers liability: may protect an organization and qualifying leaders against certain claims arising from management decisions.
  • Employment practices liability: may address claims involving alleged discrimination, harassment, retaliation, or wrongful termination.
  • Cyber liability: may include breach response, data-restoration, cyber business interruption, extortion, and third-party liability protection.
  • Commercial property: can protect insured buildings, equipment, inventory, furnishings, and other business property against covered causes of loss.
  • Workers’ compensation: helps provide statutory benefits for employees with covered work-related injuries or illnesses.
  • Abuse or molestation liability: may be considered for organizations whose services involve children, seniors, patients, or other vulnerable people.

Which risks should be reviewed?

A useful insurance review begins with the real-world activities that can create loss. Important considerations for this page include:

  • Board and management decisions
