The California JPIA’s 31st Annual Risk Management Educational Forum, October 7–9, 2026, will be held at the Monterey Conference Center in the heart of downtown Monterey.  

Risk management goes deeper than we see. That’s why this year’s theme, Beneath the Surface—Dive Into Risk Management, focuses on identifying exposures, uncovering insights, and applying solutions that strengthen the agencies we serve and the communities that rely on them. 

This year’s Forum brings together an inspiring keynote, thought leaders, and industry experts to share practical tools, strategies, and perspectives shaping the future of risk management. Attendees will explore key topics including legal liability, workers’ compensation, employment law, public safety, organizational dynamics, governance, and emerging legislative challenges. 

Join us to connect with peers, gain valuable insights, and strengthen your risk management approach.  

Dive into knowledge. Dive into connection. Dive into risk management.
