OUR LEADERSHIP
Our founders and leaders Stanley Sussman and John C. Schmitt, II formed The Family Security Plan® and pursued their niche in the credit union market. The Family Security Plan® continues to thrive under the direction of the second generation, who have been working in the movement for over 20 years.
The executive leadership group brings extensive knowledge in both the credit union and insurance industries collectively, and they direct our team in Sales, IT, Business Development, Marketing, Training, Quality Assurance, Business Analysis and more. The teams operate in a collaborative effort to deliver on the promises made to each one of our clients.
