Call for National Housing Center Awards Nominations
The National Housing Center Board of Governors is seeking nominations for NAHB’s two highest honors: Membership in the National Housing Hall of Fame and the Exemplary Service in Home Building award.
NAHB established the National Housing Hall of Fame in 1976 to recognize those individuals whose spirit, ingenuity and determination have changed the face of housing for the better, making America one of the best-housed nations in the world. Being named to the National Housing Hall of Fame is the highest individual honor bestowed by the housing industry.
The Exemplary Service in Home Building award recognizes individuals for outstanding and commendable accomplishments in service to the housing industry.
Nominations for the 2023 Induction Ceremony may be submitted by an NAHB member or local home builder association. You can learn more about the awards and access the nomination form on the National Housing Hall of Fame webpage.
Nominations must be submitted by Oct. 7, 2022. For more information, please contact Cyndi McKinley
