Blue Ribbon Communities
CAI's Blue Ribbon Community Program recognizes communities that work hard to develop and maintain standards, encourage community participation, maintain fiscal stability and positively impact the quality of life for the residents. Not every association successfully creates a community within its borders. Those do are truly Blue Ribbon Communities.
