    ANCA-WR TO HOST TOWN HALL MEETING IN SEATTLE AREA

    Los Angeles, CA - True to its grassroots, the ANCA will continue its
    road trip around the Western United States, now with a stop in the
    state of Washington. On Sunday, June 2, 2013 at 12:00PM the Armenian
    National Committee of American - Western Region (ANCA-WR) will host
    its next Town Hall at the Holy Resurrection Armenian Apostolic Church
    located in Redmond, Washington.

    `The town hall meetings play a key role in connecting with the
    different communities in the region and learning about their needs and
    interests, while also serving as an opportunity to engage them in
    initiatives taken on by the ANCA,' stated ANCA-WR Executive Director
    Elen Asatryan. `I look forward to meeting community members in the
    great state of Washington and developing a long term working
    relationship with them as we continue to plant the seeds of activism
    in that area,' added Asatryan.

    The ANCA-WR Town Hall series is an effort to reactivate and engage
    Armenian American communities throughout the Western United
    States. The meetings are led by ANCA-WR senior staff and Executive
    Board members, who provide attendees with an overview of the
    organization, its priorities, and recent developments affecting
    Armenian-Americans, Armenia and Artsakh. After the presentation,
    attendees have an opportunity to ask questions, discuss issues of
    concern, and make recommendations.

    The June 2nd Town Hall Meeting will be led by ANCA-WR Executive
    Director Elen Asatryan and ANCAWR Legislative Affairs Director Haig
    Baghdassarian.

    `It's vital that we connect with all our Armenian communities in the
    United States, making them aware that there is an organization
    fighting for justice of the Genocide and other issues of concern,'
    stated Baghdassarian.

    The Washington state Town Hall is preceded by those held in Phoenix,
    AZ, Las Vegas, NV, Fresno, CA, San Francisco, CA, and Boise, Idaho.

    The Armenian National Committee of America-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 ANCA-WR advances the concerns of the Armenian American community
    on a broad range of issues.
