WHAT IS CAI?

Community Associations Institute (CAI) is an international organization dedicated to fostering vibrant, competent, harmonious community associations. For over (50) years, CAI has been the leader in providing education, resources, advocacy, and networking to the volunteer homeowners who govern community associations and the professional managers and service providers who support them. CAI has more than 45,000 members in 63 chapters worldwide, including Canada, the Middle East and South Africa.

The Channel Islands Chapter serves Ventura, Santa Barbara, San Luis Obispo, and Kern Counties by providing its over 1,000 chapter members with education, resources, networking, and advocacy to further our mission of Building Better Communities. CAI-Channel Islands is governed by a volunteer Board of Directors that holds seven board meetings each year. All members are welcome to attend.
