Associate Appreciation Month The next time you come to an NPBA event, look around at your fellow members. I guarantee that more than half of the people you see will be associate members. These are people who are essential to the home-building process and help enable our industry to provide Americans with an unrivaled selection of quality homes. Among the ranks of associate members are subcontractors, sales and marketing specialists, architects, interior designers, title and escrow experts, lawyers, people in the financial services industry, product suppliers and manufacturers, and many more who are essential to the challenging task of providing housing for a growing population. Associate members also are essential to the NPBA and to the NAHB federation, offering sponsorships, devoting countless hours at committee meetings and volunteering at special events, and strengthening our industry in the process. Most importantly, our associate members help broaden our perspective so that we can assess issues more objectively in the context of our entire industry.
In recognition of the thousands of associates who volunteer their time and services to NAHB and its state and local affiliates, NAHB has designated September as Associate Member Appreciation Month. NAHB always has appreciated the dedication and enthusiasm of its associate members, but in today’s unsettled – and unsettling – housing market environment, we appreciate that dedication and commitment more than ever. During September – and every other month, for that matter – I urge all NPBA members to get to know one another better, learn about each others’ businesses and whenever possible, to do business with other members. Our HBA is strong when individual members are strong and doing business with other members is a great way to strengthen the association while ensuring that the people you work with understand the issues and concerns that affect your day-to-day operations. Associate members are invaluable to our businesses and an essential part of our proud history, tradition and spirit. Let’s all thank them this month by doing business with a member!
