CAI is a national organization dedicated to fostering vibrant, competent, harmonious community
associations. For more than 30 years, CAI has been the leader in providing education and
resources to the volunteer homeowners who govern community associations and the professionals
who support them. Our members include community association volunteer leaders, professional
managers, community management firms, and other professionals and companies that provide
products and services to associations.

Working closely with more than 50 state, regional and local chapters nationwide, we bring together
experts to provide the latest information on community association management and governance.
We serve our members with books, seminars and workshops, research, continuing education and
periodicals, including Common Ground magazine and specialized newsletters on community
association management, governance, and law.

CAI also advocates for legislative and regulatory policies that support responsible governance and
effective management. We represent the interests of our members before the U.S. Congress,
federal agencies, and other policy-setting bodies on issues such as taxes, insurance, bankruptcy
reform and fair housing. In addition, state Legislative Action Committees represent CAI members
before state legislatures and agencies on issues such as assessment collection, foreclosure, and
construction defects. Download a PDF copy of CAI's public policy statements.
