National Homeownership Month Toolkit
New images are available for HBAs to use and download in the social media section of the toolkit.
National Homeownership Month in June is an opportunity to remind consumers about the evolving role of the home and its importance in our lives. NAHB has developed materials to help you highlight positive messages about the home building industry and provide consumers with information on the benefits of homeownership.
Planning Materials
