Washington, D.C., (August 30, 2018) — The American Council of Life Insurers (ACLI) proudly supports Life Insurance Awareness Month, an annual event sponsored by LIFE Happens each September to educate Americans on the important role life insurance plays in policyholders’ lives and in the nation overall.

“There are few things more important than the financial security of American families,” said ACLI President and CEO Susan K. Neely. “The life insurance industry is hard at work providing products and services that offer families the foundation needed to maintain their standards of living, in retirement and when the unexpected happens.”

Throughout September, ACLI will feature information on our website, www.acli.com, about the life insurance industry, its benefits to American families, and its vital role in the U.S. economy. ACLI’s website also will feature links to personal stories on the difference life insurance has made in people's lives. The website also provides fact sheets on how the life insurance industry benefits American families and the economy in every state.

The individual stories and data tell a familiar story: America’s life insurers are helping families build better futures.

“Every day, the life insurance industry provides products and advice that allow people to make informed financial choices, save for the future, protect their families, and contribute to our society. In fact, 90 million American families count on life insurers' products,” Ms. Neely said.

Life Insurance Awareness Month also provides an opportunity for ACLI and the entire industry to highlight a mission it has fulfilled for generations: helping Americans obtain long-term financial peace of mind.
