“Knowing that nearly one-fifth of all Americans — more than 56 million people — have a disability, and close to 30% of all families have a family member with a disability, we recognized the need to educate our field leaders, financial professionals and staff members on how life insurance can be used to help families facing these challenges,” said Muldoon. “Penn Mutual encourages financial professionals to provide meaningful financial guidance that addresses the complex needs of this community.”
