The purpose of the Arlington Citizen Police Academy Alumni Association (ACPAAA) is to promote better understanding and communication between the police department and the citizens of Arlington. ACPAAA members have already attended the Arlington Citizen Police Academy and have an active interest in continued support for the police department.

  • Assisting recruit officers in scenario training, which helps duplicate real-world police incidents in controlled settings;

  • Contributing monetary aid to establish the Texas Peace Officers Memorial;

  • Purchasing equipment for the police department; and

  • Donating to the Community Partners of Tarrant County (formerly known as "Kash for Kids").

A highlight of the year for the ACPAAA is the annual reception for all officers and police personnel, where member-catered homemade foods are served.

General Information
The Arlington Citizen Police Academy was established in 1987 by Police Chief, David Kunkle. It was the third such organization in the United States, and the second in Texas. Its purpose is to promote better understanding and communication between the police department and the citizens of Arlington. By the second graduation class of the CPA, there was a growing desire by the graduates to continue learning, supporting and communicating with the police department; thus, the Alumni was formed. Today the Alumni is a very viable, supporting organization.


How to Become Members
Only people who have successfully completed the Citizen Police Academy Class are eligible to become Alumni members. If you have graduated from the CPA class, all you have to do to join is to fill out the new member registration information, pay your dues, and you are a member. Our General Meetings are on the second Thursday of each month, beginning at 7:00pm
