Chairman NAHB Associate Members Committee 2017
![Picture](/uploads/1/3/2/8/13287936/1251547.jpg)
I am happy to serve the NAHB Federation.
We have lived through the recent economic slowdown and witnessed the damage it has caused to our members and membership. We have watched cuts in services and employees, not only in our Associations, but often in our own companies. I will use my experienced leadership, demonstrated commitment to the Association at all 3 levels, and my ability to understand the diverse needs of our members to help promote the growth of Associates.
I know our Federation and our issues.
I have attended IBS, Leadership Conferences, and Board meetings. At various times, I have belonged to 3 NAHB Councils. I have been in the halls of Congress, at the Capitol in Wisconsin and in City Hall with Builder members. I believe that this country doesn't recover until building recovers. I will continue to push the NAHB agenda and our members' best interests. We need representation that is not afraid to challenge or to propose ideas. We need leadership that has no agenda other than what is best for our industry, our association and our members. We need someone who not only listens, but communicates. That is who I am. That is what I hope to provide as this year's Chairman.
I have put together this website to give you insight into who I am and what you can expect from me. On the following pages, you will find my background and involvement in our Association and the industry. I will continue to add to it. I invite Committee members and non-committee members to send me your concerns and questions. I promise to get back to you with answers. I am looking forward to serving as the NAHB Associate Members Chairman.
Sincerely,
Monica Sommerfledt Lewis
