Elected Officials Reception
Next is Now: Together, We Build
Calling all Alberta MLAs and elected officials. This is your night to connect directly with Alberta’s co-operative leaders and constituents.
On behalf of the Alberta Community & Co-operative Association (ACCA), we are pleased to invite you to the 2025 Elected Officials Reception & Co-op Awards, an evening dedicated to connection, recognition, and building stronger communities together.
Why Attend?
Alberta is home to nearly 500 co-operatives, from housing and energy to finance, agriculture, and emerging industries. Together, they drive economic growth, create jobs, foster local investment, and deliver essential services. In fact, 70% of Albertans belong to at least one co-op or credit union, making this sector one of the most direct links you have to your constituents.
This complimentary reception is your opportunity to:
Meet with your constituents who are leaders and members of Alberta’s co-operatives and credit unions
Celebrate excellence through the Alberta Co-operative Leadership Awards
Enjoy live music, food, and conversation in a welcoming, informal setting
You’ll also connect with representatives from some of Alberta’s largest and longest-standing co-operatives, including organizations that play a critical role in Alberta’s economy and communities.

Date: Tuesday, November 4, 2025
