Corporal Kimberly Mueller of the Stony Plain/Spruce Grove/Enoch RCMP has been awarded the prestigious IODE RCMP Community Service Award for her continued commitment to serving Indigenous communities across Alberta.

Mueller has worked on behalf of her community, both on and off duty, developing partnerships, helping communities access funding and create programs for youth.

In 2004, she created the Alberta Aboriginal Youth Achievement Awards. The award program celebrates the many accomplishments of Métis, First Nations and Inuit youth from across Alberta. The awards encourage excellence and creates positive roles models for young people throughout the province.

Through her work and dedication, Mueller has left a lasting impact in the communities where she has served.
