Supporting Association Legislative Initiatives
CAI Legislative Action Committee (LAC) members work tirelessly on behalf
of the thousands of community associations around New England-advancing the
interests of condominium associations, guarding against legislative efforts that
threaten the community association lifestyle and governance, as well as educating

Thanks to the generous contributions of community association members, management companies, and business partners, LACs can accomplish these goals and
remain vigilant.

CAI Membership Survey Results
Volunteer Leaders, Managers, and Business Partner Satisfaction High
The CAI Member Needs Assessment Survey is conducted to quantify the characteristics and opinions of CAI's current and former members regarding a variety of
topics important to each membership category, as well as their thoughts about CAI
and its services.
According to the findings, the most important issues facing community associations are uninformed boards, increased legislative/regulatory oversight, financial
and economic pressures, and aging infrastructure. CAI members are concerned
about state regulations impacting community associations, and an overwhelming
majority of CAI members surveyed (92 percent as compared to 89 percent in past
surveys) agreed that CAI advocates on behalf of association interests and responds
to legislative, legal, and regulatory activities.
In addition, 89 percent of those surveyed would recommend CAI to their peers,
and across all member types, the most important reasons for joining CAI include
professional designations and certifications, connection to local chapter resource,
networking, education, and publications.
