NAHB Federation Unites to Express Appreciation for HBA Staff
During NAHB’s inaugural HBA Staff Appreciation Week, members and colleagues expressed their heartfelt gratitude for the hard work and dedication of HBA executive officers and staff.
Throughout the week, NAHB collected more than 60 “Shout-Outs,” notes and photos of recognition of HBA staff, submitted by members and colleagues from all corners of the Federation. The Shout-Outs reflected the many ways HBA staff work tirelessly for their members – from hosting special events that bring members together, advocating for home building in their communities and fostering a warm and inviting atmosphere at their associations – HBA staff do not go unnoticed. Members and staff also shared messages and photos on social media.

On Wednesday, Nov. 13, all NAHB staff participated in “Staff Calling Day” and contacted local and state associations to express their appreciation for HBA Staff across the Federation. Also during the week, The Executive Officers Council hosted exclusive webinars featuring NAHB’s Chief Economist, Dr. Robert Dietz, and NAHB’s advocacy team. In addition, EOs shared their insights on association management and leadership in interviews published daily on the HBA Staff Appreciation Week page.
The next HBA Staff Appreciation Week will take place on Nov. 3-7, 2025.
