About CEA
The California Earthquake Authority is a publicly managed, privately funded organization that provides catastrophe residential earthquake insurance and encourages Californians to reduce their risk of earthquake loss.

Its Governing Board consists of California’s governor, insurance commissioner and state treasurer as voting members; and the chair of the state Senate Rules Committee and the speaker of the state Assembly as non-voting members.
