We’re Turning 75 – Help Us Celebrate!
For 75 years, ARPA has been your community. We’ve grown, laughed, learned, and celebrated together. Now, as we look toward our 75th Anniversary in 2026, we want to capture the moments, memories, and milestones that have shaped us.
Your voice is part of ARPA’s history. Here’s how you can contribute:

Connect with other alumni and share stories from the past!
✔️Upload Photos.
Dig through your photo albums and show us ARPA through the decades.
✔️Stay Connected.

✔️Share Your Story.
Submit a short reflection, bullet points or note on your favorite memory of ARPA or a thought you have of ARPA from over the years.
✔️Give Back.
Join our 75 for 75 Fundraising Campaign by donating $75 for 75 years.
Funds raised will be used to support bursaries for students, emerging leaders and others to be able to attend future ARPA professional development opportunities.
Call for Volunteers | June Alumni Events
As we plan toward the celebration of ARPA’s 75th Anniversary at the 2026 Conference, we’re excited to host two Alumni Events, June of 2026 in Calgary and Edmonton. These gatherings will bring alumni together to reconnect and network while also celebrating Indigenous History Month.
We’re looking for volunteers to help make these events a success. Responsibilities include:
- Supporting the planning, promotion, coordination and hosting of the events
- Helping with fun activities and tours
- Ensuring everyone, especially our alumni, invited guests and public feel welcome and supported
