OUR MISSION: To provide information and education to boards, owners and professionals involved with community associations, to help their organizations run more effectively and efficiently


ACTHA focuses on community associations - condominiums, townhomes, HOAs and co-ops in Chicago, Cook, Lake, Will, McHenry, Kankakee and other collar counties throughout Illinois. However, our depth of knowledge, resources, and educational seminars are geographically limitless. For more than 30 years, we have helped our members solve day-to-day challenges and capitalize on longer-term opportunities.

Most of all, we take a personal approach—to education, networking and leadership development. ACTHA is run by a volunteer board of directors who are all resident owners in condos, townhouse and homeowner associations. Their knowledge, experience and intuitive feel for what other owners are seeking make the educational programs ACTHA offers germane to condo/townhome board members, owners and managers.


In addition, ACTHA retains a lobbyist in Springfield to advocate on behalf of our condo, townhouse, homeowner and co-op associations. Read More...
