"Working with TCAA is working with great professional and dedicated volunteers.  As an HOA board member who has testified at legislative hearings, I've learned we need to educate elected officials about Community Associations and the positive role they play in their communities. TCAA can assist HOAs reaching out to their elected officials."

"Homeowners need someone to speak in their behalf before our legislators. Community managers and their companies need reasonable legislation they can help their boards implement effectively. The role of TCAA is critical in building and maintaining the working relationships with our legislators and their staffs.  This results in our positions on HOA issues receiving a fair hearing."

"As part of our service in preparing an association's budget, we encourage associations to budget $1 per door or unit in the community.  We also request that owners become actively involved to write letters to legislators, ride the bus to a rally in Austin or testify at a hearing.  Even if they can only make a small donation, they still get the benefit of an overall investment."

"To be successful, TCAA must win the support of the board members and homeowners of association communities.  This "buy-in" requires the full support of the CEOs of management companies, not just the managers, to educate association boards and owners.  This grassroots support will enhance the overall effectiveness of TCAA and avoid the misconception that TCAA is just another lobby group only looking after the financial interests of the professionals in the industry."

"As an HOA owner for more than 12 years, I support TCAA's efforts to influence policies which can dramatically affect my property value and lifestyle investment. Neighborhoods like mine speak for the silent majority by backing an effective statewide organization which looks out for our best interests."
