We Are Our Members

In 1974, the Trust teamed up with a handful of Cities, Towns, Counties, and Special Service Districts to pool resources and provide cost-effective liability and property insurance. We now serve more than 650 municipalities.

We partner with you to build, sustain, protect, and improve your organization. We relentlessly pursue additional and better ways to help you avoid needing to file a claim, and if you do need to file one, to limit your liability and cost. Our suite of unique and comprehensive training for members is a significant piece of our (and your) success.

The Trust operates as a not-for-profit, member-owned insurer, prioritizing financial stability and reinvesting savings to keep premiums low. Primary benefits include tailored coverage, expert guidance, and a wide selection of comprehensive trainings that help employees be their best.
