When the Champlain Tower South condominium in Surfside, Fla., partially collapsed three years ago this month, Daniel Gonzalez was in bed just an hour away in Boca Raton.

I’m proud to celebrate International Community Association Managers Day. It reminds me to recognize my esteemed colleagues for their skill and recommit to sharing important information that advances the community management industry. Learn more about the talented and hard-working professional managers who support condominiums, homeowners associations, and housing cooperatives. And join CAI in celebrating them.
