Former NAIFA President Terry Headley has a long-distinguished record of service to NAIFA. He is recognized as a key NAIFA contact for multiple members of both the Nebraska Congressional delegation and the state legislators over the years. Headley has served in leadership roles at the local, state, and national levels. He is also an IFAPAC Capitol Defender.

Headley is the star of IFAPAC's 12-minute video solicitation, "NAIFA's Advocacy and Your Bottom Line." In the video, Headley clearly and passionately explains why every single NAIFA member should give to IFAPAC, echoing Teddy Roosevelt's quote, "Every man owes a part of his time and money to the business or industry in which he is engaged.”

In 2015 in New Orleans, both Headley and Robert Miller were dubbed “IFAPAC Kings.” They were later appropriately retitled “IFAPAC Co-commanders in Chief” because their IFAPAC lifetime giving totals exceeded $100,000.

The IFAPAC committee is currently seeking nominations for NAIFA's inaugural Terry Headley Award. Nominees 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 the nominee’s name, chapter, a listing of all leadership positions they have held (advocacy positions will hold more weight in the decision-making progress), and all state legislators for whom the nominee is a contact. Include a statement with a description as to why this person is worthy of receiving the award.

Please submit your nominations at IFAPAC@NAIFA.org by IFAPAC's 55th Birthday on August 18, 2021. The winner will be announced as part of the National Leadership Conference in December and presented by Robert Miller.
