Advocacy Together
The NHPA Ambassador program is a group of retailers from across the industry who are passionate about the independent home improvement channel and have a deep involvement with the North American Hardware and Paint Association (NHPA). NHPA Ambassadors help connect their retailer networks to the association, encouraging retailers to become more involved with programs and services, like online training, consulting, college-level courses and more.
