Virtual Subcommittee Schedule Available for NAHB’s Fall Leadership Meeting
NAHB’s Fall Leadership Meeting will be held in person Oct. 1-3 in San Antonio. In an effort to condense the schedule for that week, subcommittee meetings will be held virtually beginning Aug. 29.
For members who are interested in attending, a list of subcommittee meetings — organized by council or committee — is now available on nahb.org/flm. (Member log-in is required.) Each subcommittee listing includes the date and time of the meeting, as well as a direct link to the meeting through either Teams or WebEx. (Platform is noted for any necessary application updates.)
Similar to in-person leadership events, all NAHB members are invited to attend any subcommittee unless it’s a closed event. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to the staff contact listed for the subcommittee you are interested in attending.
Visit nahb.org/flm for a full schedule of events.
