As we enter the final months of the year, excitement is building for our annual CAA Winter Conference, which will take place from December 4th to December 7th, 2024, at the iconic Fairmont Hotel in San Francisco. This is shaping up to be one of our most dynamic and insightful events yet!

As we continue to advance in our industry, it’s crucial to recognize the outstanding efforts of the Security Industry Alarm Coalition (SIAC) and the significant role they play in California. SIAC has been instrumental in ensuring that our industry not only adapts to change but thrives in the face of new challenges. Their work has been foundational in bridging the gap between law enforcement and the security sector, fostering collaboration that benefits us all—businesses, law enforcement, and the communities we serve.

As we dive into the August edition of The MIRROR, I am excited to highlight the remarkable content and value our publication continues to bring to the security and life safety industry. Our dedicated team has worked tirelessly to ensure that every issue serves as an industry-leading resource, providing insights, trends, and valuable information that keep us all informed and ahead of the curve.

Dear CAA Members, Our industry continues to play a vital role in safeguarding homes, businesses, and communities across the state. As we navigate through an everevolving landscape of security and life safety challenges, our collective commitment to excellence and innovation remains our guiding light. Firstly, I want to extend my heartfelt gratitude to each member of our association.

I am thrilled to share with you the tremendous success of the CAA Spring Convention. With over 210 dealers and manufacturers in attendance, the event was a remarkable gathering of industry professionals dedicated to advancing the security and life safety industry.

As we reflect on recent events and anticipate upcoming opportunities, I’m excited to update you on several fronts. First, our Day on Capitol Hill on March 12th was a great success.

I hope this message finds you well. As we look ahead, I want to highlight a couple of areas where our community continues to make strides.
