2024 NAHB Chairman Carl Harris, CEO Jim Tobin and EOC President Natalie Fryer encourages all members of the Federation to celebrate the week.

NAHB’s greatest asset is the strength of its local and state home builders’ associations staffed by association professionals dedicated to serving the home building industry. Whether organizing events, advocating for the residential construction industry or providing valuable services to members, each HBA staff member plays a crucial role in the Federation’s success. 

The inaugural HBA Staff Appreciation Week (Nov. 11-15, 2024) honors and celebrates the hard work and commitment of the association management professionals across the Federation. HBA staff are invested in the industry’s success and members and serve as a trusted resource for home building information in their communities. As the face of the industry, HBA staff works tirelessly to support their communities, from educating consumers about post-disaster contractor scammers to introducing students to a career in the trades.

This week, HBA staff can hear from their members and colleagues about how their work makes a difference. Members are encouraged to submit a shout-out to be featured on the HBA Staff Appreciation Week page and post social media messages using #HBAStaffWeek or #NAHBLocalLeaders.

Visit the HBA Staff Appreciation Week page to learn more about events happening throughout the week and ideas on how to celebrate.
