    ANC-WR Intern Spotlight: Carina Khanjian


    Los Angeles, CA - As a participant in the Armenian National Committee
    - Western Region's 2008 Spring Internship-Externship Program (ANC-WR
    IEP), Carina Khanjian has gained valuable knowledge and experience
    within the media and public relations field. In addition to writing
    press releases and building media relationships, Khanjian has also
    been instrumental in conducting a voter registration drive among the
    Armenian American community.

    "Upon hearing about the ANC-WR Internship-Externship Program I was
    extremely excited to apply," exclaimed Khanjian. "I have been aware of
    the ANC and its various activities but this experience has allowed me
    to gain further insight into how this exceptional organization
    operates on a daily basis," added Khanjian.

    Carina is a senior at Alex Pilibos Armenian School and has recently
    been admitted to the University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA)
    where she plans to study English and Communications. Khanjian has
    also been a long time community activist and member of Homenetmen Los
    Angeles and AYF Glendale.

    Prior to her internship, Khanjian volunteered at the ANC-WR on
    numerous occasions such as the 2006 Telethon as well as phone banking
    to raise awareness of H. Res. 106. While volunteering for the
    organization, Khanjian learned about the Internship-Externship Program
    and was motivated and eager to begin partaking in ANC related
    initiatives.

    The Armenian National Committee - Western Region is the largest and
    most influential Armenian American grassroots advocacy organization in
    the Western United States. Working in coordination with a network of
    offices, chapters, and supporters throughout the Western United States
    and affiliated organizations around the country, the ANC-WR advances
    the concerns of the Armenian American community on a broad range of
    issues.
