2026 Chapter President
As we begin 2026, I am honored to serve once again as President of the Channel Islands Chapter of the Community Associations Institute. This year is particularly meaningful as we celebrate the Chapter’s 45th anniversary, a milestone that reflects decades of collaboration, advocacy, education, and service to our community association industry.
Our strategic planning session set a strong foundation for the year ahead, and I am genuinely energized by the dedication, experience, and enthusiasm of our Board of Directors. Together, we are focused on advancing CAI’s mission while continuing to provide meaningful value to our members: homeowners, board members, community managers, and business partners alike.
Education remains at the core of what we do. In 2026, the Chapter will continue to offer insightful programs, dynamic speakers, and relevant resources designed to address the evolving challenges facing community associations. From legislative updates to practical governance and management tools, our goal is to ensure our members are informed, supported, and empowered.
Advocacy is also a key priority. We remain committed to supporting CAI’s legislative efforts through CLAC and encouraging member participation in protecting the interests of community associations at both the state and local levels. When we work together, our collective voice truly makes a difference.
Equally important is fostering connection. CAI-Channel Islands thrives because of the relationships built through chapter events, committee involvement, and shared professional engagement. I encourage you to get involved by attending an event, joining a committee, or simply connecting with fellow members. These opportunities strengthen not only our chapter, but the whole industry.
I am grateful for the trust placed in me and for the continued commitment of our members and volunteers. I look forward to an exciting, productive year as we honor our past, celebrate our present, and continue building a strong future together.
I hope to see you at an upcoming chapter event. Our theme this year is “Built to Last” - 45 years of growth, success and connections…. Cheers to the next 45 years!!!
Warm regards,
Lisa Tashjian, Esq., CCAL
2026 President, CAI-Channel Islands Chapter
