ANCA-WR TO HOLD TOWN HALL MEETINGS IN COLORADO AND UTAH
Los Angeles, CA - As part of its ongoing outreach initiative
throughout the western United States, the Armenian National Committee
of America - Western Region (ANCA-WR) will hold back-to- back Town
Hall Meetings in the states of Colorado and Utah. The Colorado Town
Hall meeting will take place on Sunday, March 16, 2014, 4:00PM, at
Church of God, 9375 Gaylord St., Thornton, CO followed by another in
Utah scheduled for Wednesday, March 19, 2014, 7:00pm at Arbat, 375 E.
3300 S, Salt Lake City, UT.
"The best part about our town halls is that it allows for a two-way
conversation with members of the community. While attendees learn
about our work, issues facing Armenian communities across the United
States, and how they can make an impact locally, we gain better
insight on local challenges and the kinds of resources needed in the
area," stated ANCA WR Executive Director, Elen Asatryan. "We know
that the Colorado and Utah Armenian communities have seen a
significant change in demographics and growth in the past 10 years and
are confident that the town hall meetings will serve as a strong
foundation in incorporating strategies that will help attend to these
changes," 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 effecting Armenian-Americans,
Armenia and Artsakh. After the presentation, community members have an
opportunity to ask questions, discuss issues of concern, make
recommendations, and learn about ways to get involved with ANCA
efforts locally.
The March 16th Colorado and Utah Town Hall Meetings and the March 19th
Utah Town Hall Meeting, which will be led by ANCA-WR Executive
Director Elen Asatryan and ANCA-WR Legislative Affairs Director Haig
Baghdassarian succeed those held in Houston, TX, Seattle, WA, Phoenix,
AZ, Las Vegas, NV, Fresno, CA, San Francisco, CA, and Boise, Idaho.
For more information about the upcoming ANCA Town Hall meetings
individuals are encouraged to contact the ANCA-WR office by emailing
[email protected] or by calling 818.500.1918.
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.
