NAHB is invested in professional development opportunities for its members and providing exposure to NAHB leadership meetings to help foster future leaders for the home building industry. Applications are now open for select leadership grants and scholarships for qualified members to capitalize on these opportunities.
NAHB Remodelers Leadership Grant
If you are a current or past local leader and have an interest in serving at the national leadership level, the NAHB Remodeler Leadership Grant can help forge the connections you need to make an impact.
Grant recipients will receive financial support to help defray costs associated with member travel expenses to NAHB’s Spring Leadership Meeting, June 10-13 in Washington, D.C. They will also have access to numerous networking events with leadership development opportunities for remodelers.

Associates Leadership Grant
The Associates Leadership Grant develops active Associate leaders through mentoring, participation at national meetings and education about NAHB’s programs and services to help Associates get the most out of their membership while cultivating future leaders. The grant provides financial assistance to a few Associate members each year to help defray the cost of attending NAHB’s board meetings.
The deadline to apply for each of these grants is March 7.
NAHB Emerging Leader Grant
Local and state member leaders who have not yet attended NAHB Spring or Fall Leadership Meetings are encouraged to apply for the NAHB Emerging Leader Grant.
