Insurance Consumer Guidance Society (ICGS)

Independent. Accessible. Empowering.

 

The Insurance Consumer Guidance Society (ICGS) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to educating residents of California with clear, unbiased resources about insurance. Our mission is to enhance consumer understanding of insurance products and the evolving regulatory environment, with an emphasis on challenges posed by climate change and market shifts.

 

What we do:

 

  • Comprehensive Insurance Education: ICGS delivers accessible and unbiased information on insurance products and policies. Our mission is to make complex insurance issues understandable for all Californians.

 

  • Public and Media Outreach: The flagship of ICGS is a dedicated weekly radio show, Insurance Hour, syndicated throughout the state of California with the potential to reach 32.1 million listeners. ICGS also engages the public through local and statewide media appearances, webinars, podcasts, and contributed articles.

 

  • Direct Consumer Support: With a free helpline (213-83-LEARN) and dedicated email monitored by independent insurance professionals (info@icgs.org), ICGS provides a lifeline for consumers to receive personalized and unbiased guidance.

 

ICGS serves the public by fostering informed decision-making in a dynamic insurance landscape, and that empowers Californians with the knowledge they need to confidently navigate their insurance choices.
