REALTOR® Party Travel Team

The REALTOR® Party Travel Team includes the NAR Vice President of Advocacy, the REALTOR® Party Director, and numerous advocacy committee liaisons and RPAC leaders.

These volunteer leaders are appointed by the NAR president. In addition to facilitating the activities of the REALTOR® Party, they serve as conduits for communication among the Leadership Team and their assigned committees, help committees operate effectively, and identify future leaders.

The REALTOR® Party Travel Team attends events around the country to talk with members and associations about the far-reaching impacts of our advocacy initiatives and how all REALTORS® can get more involved. To request a member of the Travel Team to speak at your event, click here.
