Lacy Hendricks wins Volunteer of the Year Award at NARPM
October 16-19 2023, property managers from around the United States gathered in Atlanta, GA, for the annual convention and trade show. This convention informs us on some of the major trends affecting property management coming in the next few years, and how to deal with them. NARPM® brings in the industry leaders for third party products that support the property management industry like management software, inspection software, and process automation. We get the latest on legislative updates to make sure we are in compliance, and are prepared for what’s to come.
Every year, the NARPM National President chooses a charity to sponsor for the year. Presiden Tim Wehner has been fundraising for the organization Communities in Schools and raised over ~$14,000.00 at the conference for the organization. Communities In Schools is a national organization that ensures every student, regardless of race, gender, ability, zip code, or socioeconomic background has what they need to realize their full potential in school and beyond. Communities In Schools works by bringing community resources directly into schools through embedding a trained local coordinator whose sole focus is helping connect students with additional supports to help them learn, advance in grade level and graduate. To learn more about Communities in Schools, or to find your local chapter, please visit their website.
The highlight of the week, though, was one of Hendricks own being recognized as the National Volunteer of the Year for her efforts with the Governmental Affairs Committee. Lacy Hendricks has served as the leadership of the Governmental Affairs committee for the last three years, and was awarded for her efforts at the conference this year. Since the pandemic began, policymakers have been swift to pass laws related to housing, and Lacy has stepped up to represent property owners.
