ous charitable activities throughout the year, tuning in to our Legislative Updates to stay apprised of critically important issues facing our industry, attending our Annual Conference & Expo later this year, and I ask that you encourage those that are not currently members to join our ranks. The more people we can reach with education, networking, and our advocacy efforts, the better served the common-inter est community industry will be now and into the future. Whether you are a new member yourself or have been a part of CAI for many years, reach out and share the value of the organization with others as we continue to affect positive change and elevate the professionalism of our industry. Finally, if you are not already one of the over 200+ members serving on a committee this year, consider volunteering and elevating your own participation in our organization. From personal experience, the connections, personal growth, and satisfaction of contributing to the collective success of our organization is very rewarding! This month’s issue of Community Trends ® will focus on Board Basics. I cannot stress enough the importance of mastering the fundamentals of association operations as a foundation for proper governance. Take advantage of the expertise offered in this month’s articles to advance your knowledge and benefit the communities you serve! Until next time, thanks for reading and being a valued member of this great organization! n

Thank you for supporting the official magazine of CAI-NJ!

Include CAI annual membership dues in your budget planning and ensure your board is connected to the best resources to make informed decisions. Plan ahead.
