NAHB Members: Apply Now for 2026 Committees and Council Boards

NAHB relies on volunteer leaders to provide their knowledge and guidance to develop policy to support the home building industry. Members interested in serving the housing industry are encouraged to apply to one of NAHB's committees or council board of trustees for the 2026 leadership year.

Committees and councils meet during the Spring and Fall Leadership Meetings and at the International Builders' Show to discuss legislative and regulatory news, business updates, and other issues of importance to the membership and to the industry. Their role is to make informed recommendations to the NAHB Board of Directors on matters of policy.

If you're interested in serving on one of NAHB's committees or council board of trustees for the 2026 leadership year, now is the time to apply. The application deadline is Nov. 23, 2025. No applications will be accepted after the deadline.
