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
For more information about joining the Arlington Citizen Police Academy Alumni Association, call the
