Our government relations team has worked hard this last year advocating for the policies you voted for at the 2022 Annual General Meeting. Now it is your opportunity to put forward new policies that our team will bring forward to government.

In honour of co-op week and a strong desire to put the 6th Co-operative Principle in action, ACCESS invites ACCA Members to learn more about shared services and how shared services can help build community through collaboration.

Join us for our Annual General Meeting which will take place Tuesday, June 14th, from 9:00-10:30 am. This meeting will be a hybrid offering - held virtually using Zoom, and in-person at the Hotel Fairmont Palliser in Calgary. Click here to register for this free event!

Vicki Zinyk was recently elected to the position of Board Chair with the Alberta Community & Co-operative Association (ACCA) for a three-year term. She succeeds Randy Taylor, who stepped down after twelve years.

Looking forward to connecting with our membership at the annual general meeting - AGM 2021. To help provide some insight, we have prepared an impact report for your review.

ACCA stands ready to work with governments and values-driven organizations to strengthen existing co-ops and build new co-ops that improve services and leverage the collective strengths and know-how of Albertans. To move this work forward, ACCA wishes to enter a services contract with a qualified government relations practitioner.

On May 28, 2021, plan to attend ACCA AGM, exercise your vote and support the board & staff!

Gain valuable insight into ACCA's past year’s performance, strategies and outlook going forward, with a heavy emphasis on identifying our member co-operatives government relations goals.

The quarterly report is one more communication tool we have implemented to help keep our members informed about the latest accomplishments and upcoming efforts. Please download and share the PDF with your co-op members, board, and associates.
