September Is Associate Appreciation Month

September is Associate Member Appreciation Month and local and state association staffs are encouraged to recognize the myriad contributions that associate members make.

NAHB’s Membership Team is providing local and state associations with a special section of the “3-in-1 Membership Kit” specifically for Associate Member Appreciation Month.  These resources include:

  • Tips for programs and events to highlight associate contributions
  • Logos and ad slicks for HBA publications
  • A special section about associate member recruiting


To view these resources, go to Associate Member Appreciation Month Ideas on the NAHB Web site.
