A
Little NARI History...
NARI's roots go back to 1935 when President
Roosevelt's National Recovery Act established
the beginnings of NERSICA (The North East
Roofing, Siding and Insulation Contractors
Association).
In
1956 President Eisenhower established Operation
Home Improvement, a nationwide effort
emphasizing the rehabilitation of existing
housing rather than new construction. The
National Home Improvement Council (N.H.I.C)
emerged from this effort.
By
the mid-1960s, NERSICA no longer reflected the
membership of the growing industry and its name
was changed to the National Remodelers
Association (NRA).
In
1982, the Home Improvement Council, the National
Remodeling Association and NERSICA merged to
form NARI. The industry continued to grow and in
1982 the National Remodelers Association and the
National Home Improvement Council joined to
establish the National Association of the
Remodeling Industry. Today, NARI has 53 chapters
nationwide and has enjoyed a sizeable growth
period during the past decade. In 2000, NARI
moved its national headquarters from Alexandria,
Virginia, to Des Plaines, Illinois, and as the
Voice of the Remodeling Industry, continues to
prosper. |
