    ANC-WR Internship Spotlight: Patil Kavarian

    -- ANC Glendale Alumna Joins ANC-WR Internship Program

    Los Angeles, CA - As a member of the ANC-WR Internship-Externship's
    (IEP) 2009 spring class, Patil Kavarian has been working with the
    ANC-WR staff and her fellow interns to advance Hai Tahd.  Kavarian is
    a Public and Media Relations intern focusing on community activities
    and education, and has reported on community stories such as youth
    involvement in the recent local elections and helping to raise
    awareness of the Armenian Genocide.

    `The ANC-WR has given me the opportunity to help impact both the local
    community and activists throughout the region,' stated Kavarian. `By
    assisting activists cover their activities in different parts of the
    western United States, I am facilitating communication about how their
    fellow colleagues are stepping up during this important time,' said
    Kavarian.

    Kavarian has teamed with staff to reach out to her peers to encourage
    more participation in community events and opportunities for civic
    engagement.  Kavarian engaged various community efforts ranging from
    the upcoming ANC Orange County's Walk for Remembrance to voter
    registration and the ANC-Western Region's Issues Awareness Caucus in
    Sacramento, California set to take place April 22-23, 2009.

    Kavarian is a graduating senior at Crescenta Valley High School in
    Glendale, California.  An aspiring pre-med college student, she is
    still dedicated to community service and currently serves as her high
    school's Armenian Club president.  This past autumn Kavarian
    successfully completed the ANC Glendale Internship Program.

    `Patil has really benefited from the ANC-WR internship program and
    made a difference,' noted Haig Hovsepian, the ANC-WR's Community
    Relations Director and coordinator of the internship program. `This
    program provided Patil with a tremendous opportunity to compliment her
    experiences at the local level with a regional perspective.'

    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 promotes
    awareness of the Armenian American community on a broad range of
    issues.
