The “Guide Right Chapter”
Its founders set out to reclaim Brothers living in the Far North Dallas area who were not affiliated with an alumni chapter, and to establish a Guide Right program to support the citizens throughout the Metroplex.
RPA is focused on Achievement, raising the sights of minority youth, and stimulating them to accomplish through mentoring efforts, through the Kappa League program and the Richardson-Plano Guide Right Foundation.

A welcome from the Polemarch
On behalf of the officers and members of the Richardson–Plano Alumni Chapter of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Incorporated, it is my distinct honor to welcome you to our official website.
Since our chartering on February 12, 1994, our chapter has remained committed to the ideals of achievement, brotherhood, and service. We stand on the foundation established by the brothers who came before us, whose vision, dedication, and sacrifices have helped shape the chapter we are today.
As the 21st Polemarch of this distinguished chapter, I recognize both the privilege and responsibility of leadership. I firmly believe that leadership is not simply about holding a position, but about serving others, creating opportunities, building meaningful relationships, and leaving an organization stronger than you found it.
As we move forward under the 21st Administration, our commitment is centered on four priorities: Brotherhood, Impact, Sustainability, and Excellence.
- Brotherhood is the foundation of everything we do. We must remain intentional about strengthening our relationships, reconnecting with brothers, and fostering an environment where every member feels valued, engaged, and connected.
- Impact challenges us to move beyond simply being present. Our responsibility is to make a meaningful difference through mentorship, community service, leadership, and programs that positively influence the lives of those we serve.
- Sustainability requires us to think beyond today. We are committed to strengthening our chapter’s financial and operational foundation, developing future leaders, and ensuring that the work we accomplish today creates opportunities for generations of brothers to come.
- Excellence is the standard by which we must operate. From how we conduct our business to how we represent our fraternity in the community, we must continuously strive to elevate our performance, uphold accountability, and demonstrate the true meaning of achievement.
Honor the Past. Refine the Future.
Courtney Brooks, 21st Polemarch
Our administration embraces a simple philosophy: Honor the Past. Refine the Future. We will always respect the legacy that brought us here while remaining open to new ideas, fresh perspectives, and opportunities to grow.
Whether you are a brother seeking to reconnect with the Bond, a community organization exploring partnership opportunities, or a visitor interested in learning more about our chapter, I encourage you to explore our website and discover the work we are doing throughout Richardson, Plano, and the surrounding communities.
I am proud to serve alongside a group of accomplished men who continue to give their time, talents, and resources in service to our fraternity and community. Our greatest accomplishments will never be measured solely by the recognition we receive, but by the relationships we strengthen, the lives we touch, and the legacy we leave behind.
Thank you for visiting, and I look forward to the opportunities ahead as we continue to build upon our rich history and move our chapter forward, together.
Yours in the Bond,
Courtney Brooks
