In 1982, ASBSD members created the Associated School Boards Protective Trust (ASBPT), an unincorporated assessable association created by public, K-12 school districts under a joint powers agreement.

ASBPT, which was established by local boards through a joint powers agreement, is governed by a seven-member Board of Directors consisting of local board members from school districts that participate in one or more of the three insurance pools that are designed and deployed to provide high quality insurance coverage to meet the diverse needs of local school districts.
