Holly Fraccaro, CEO of HBA of Durham, Orange & Chatham Counties Wins National Award

RALEIGH, N.C. - Aug. 4, 2016 - PRLog -- Holly Fraccaro, Executive Officer of the HBA of Durham, Orange & Chatham Counties, received the "New Executive Officer of the Year Award" at the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) Association Leadership Institute (ALI) held in San Antonio, Texas, last month. Fraccaro received the David Lloyd Award which is presented annually to an executive officer who has served no longer than three years in an association management position but who is judged to have made a major contribution to the profession during that time.

Holly received the New Executive Officer of the Year award from the North Carolina Home Builders Association in 2014 and was awarded Executive Officer of the Year by the NAHB Professional Women in Building Council in January 2016.

"We here at the North Carolina Home Builders Association were delighted to learn the news," said Mike Carpenter, NCHBA's Executive Vice President. "Holly is most deserving of this honor." Fraccaro currently serves as president of North Carolina's Executive Officer Council and is a member of the NCHBA Executive Committee.

Holly stepped into her role as CEO of the HBA of Durham, Orange & Chatham Counties in late 2013, and has already moved her organization forward in impressive ways. Holly is a strong advocate for construction careers, helping to launch the HBA's new workforce training institute, called the Triangle Building Institute of North Carolina.

Holly also is a very relevant player in government affairs and advocacy. In 2014, she created the Code Officials & Builders Alliance League of the Triangle, a consortium of code officials, building department heads and area builders that provides a platform to share best practices and to address challenges. Yet, even with Holly's strong leadership in the community, she always puts her members first. Membership surveys reflect an all-time high in satisfaction and member participation.

The Home Builders Association of Durham, Orange & Chatham Counties represents home builders and associates in the housing industry throughout the area.
