Featured NAR Speaker: Rhonny Barragan

Many REALTORS® know NAR as the organization behind the REALTOR® brand, but fewer understand the full impact of its advocacy, resources, and member benefits.

Join Rhonny Barragan, Vice President of Strategic Alliances for the National Association of REALTORS®, for an engaging discussion on the power and value of REALTOR® membership at the national level. With more than two decades of experience in organized real estate, association leadership, and strategic partnerships, Rhonny works closely with state and local associations across the country to strengthen member engagement and connect REALTORS® with the resources, advocacy, and opportunities available through NAR.

During this special First Wednesday program, Rhonny will explore how NAR's advocacy efforts help protect property rights and homeownership, the strength of the REALTOR® collective, and the many benefits available to members, including professional designations and certifications that can help you stand out in today's marketplace.

Whether you're a new REALTOR® or a seasoned professional, this session will help you better understand how your national membership works on your behalf every day.
