assistance programs in the areas of democracy, economic growth,
health and social reform, and Armenia's development challenges.
Ms. Mahoney visited several USAID-supported projects in Yerevan,
including the nearly established Microsoft Innovation Center and the
Women's Support Center which provides services for victims of domestic

improving rule of law, providing better access to health care and
social benefits, and strengthening private sector and infrastructure.
