The March 31 deadline to nominate an outstanding NAIFA member to receive one of the association’s most prestigious honors, the Terry Headley Lifetime Defender Award, is fast approaching. The Terry Headley Lifetime Defender Award recognizes a current NAIFA member who shows exemplary service to their profession, colleagues, and clients through their political advocacy and support of NAIFA's political action committees.

Nominees for NAIFA's Terry Headley Lifetime Defender Award should be current NAIFA members who exhibit Headley's commitment to advancing the legislative agendas of agents, advisors, and their clients.

To nominate members, please submit a letter of recommendation to ifapac@naifa.org with a description as to why this person is worthy of receiving the award, the nominee's full name, chapter, and a listing of all leadership positions they have held (advocacy positions will hold more weight in the decision-making process), and all legislators for whom the nominee is a NAIFA grassroots contact. 

Please reach out to Shanika Thomas sthomas@naifa.org for more information.
