Crescenta Valley High School Junior Steps Up to Serve
Community Through ANC-WR
LOS ANGELES, CA - Sara Simounian recently joined the Armenian National
Committee - Western Region's Internship-Externship Program (ANC-WR
IEP) as one of its newest interns this spring. As part of the
program, Simounian will be specializing in Public and Media Relations.
Only a few weeks into the program, Simounian has jumped into action
assisting the ANC staff with several projects ranging from press
releases to event promotion.
"Through the program I am learning more about current issues dealing
with Armenia and Armenian communities all over the world," noted
Simounian. "Though I am dealing with present community concerns,
doing so has made me feel a greater appreciation for my heritage," she
added.
Simounian is a third year student attending Crescenta Valley High
School in Glendale. She intends to continue her academic studies at
Glendale Community College before heading off to university. In
addition to her projects, Simounian has also had the opportunity to
learn more about the ANC as well as valuable work environment skills
through the internship program's lecture, workshop, and seminar
series.
Simounian learned about the internship program through her brother, an
ANC-WR IEP alumnus. She had regularly volunteered for the ANC-WR in
the past year and as soon as Simounian heard about the 2009 Spring
Session of the internship program she quickly submitted her
application.
"One of the best things about this program is that I get to work with
friends who feel just as strongly as me about making a positive
difference in my community," said Simounian.
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.
