CAJPA, the California Association of Joint Powers Authorities, operates within the professional training and coaching sector and is based in Sacramento, California. Established in 1981, it serves as an information and educational network for public agencies that have formed joint powers authorities to collaborate on service delivery, with a focus on insurance and risk management concepts and services for its members. The organization targets public agencies seeking more effective or efficient government services and potentially lower insurance costs by pooling resources, addressing the challenges that arose when private insurers were reluctant to cover JPAs. CAJPA functions as a collaborative platform that facilitates communication and cooperative problem solving among JPAs, supporting members through education and shared practices in risk management and related insurance approaches. In the broader landscape of their industry, CAJPA is positioned to provide guidance and networking opportunities to public-sector entities pursuing pooled solutions for governance and risk-related needs from its Sacramento base. A recent development highlights ongoing engagement with its member network as it continues to foster information exchange and best practices in this specialized field.
