The National Auto Body Council, which celebrated its 25th anniversary in 2021, is the premier organization of collision industry partners dedicated to strategic networking opportunities that positively change lives in the communities we serve. The collaborative membership of the National Auto Body Council has gifted more than 2,600 vehicles, provided extrication opportunities for more than 4,300 First Responders and contributed to thousands of distracted driving pledges in communities through NABC Recycled Rides, NABC First Responder Emergency Extrication (F.R.E.E.) and the NABC Distracted Driving Initiative. That effort equates to a 4:1 ROI in dollar value delivered from NABC membership dollars. The National Auto Body Council is changing the paradigm of how the collision industry works and is viewed.
