As a movement forward in honoring the relationship between Indigenous peoples within the Province of Alberta and Policing, the AACP is proud to establish the Indigenous Award of Distinction to empower and recognize individuals working within police agencies to work alongside Indigenous Peoples in Alberta, to foster an environment of mutual respect and reciprocity. The Indigenous Award of Distinction recognizes an individual who has gone above and beyond their regular duties to improve the overall wellbeing of Indigenous Peoples within Alberta. This award is presented to an individual who has developed key partnership that has succeeded in creating sustainable relationships or programing between Indigenous communities and policing within the Province of Alberta.
