The Armenian Assembly of America’s (Assembly) Western Region Office
announces the formation of its Southern California Regional Council
(Council).
The Council consists of current Assembly Board Members Lisa Kalustian,
Joyce Stein and Peter Kezirian, Jr.; past Assembly Board Member Richard
Mushegain; 2007 Gala Co-Chairs Al and Diane Cabraloff; and former
Assembly intern and AGBU Committee Member of Hye Geen, Talin Yacoubian.
"The Council will play a pivotal role in working with the Western
Region Office and it’s Director in facilitating its grassroots
operation and community outreach initiatives," said Bryan Ardouny,
Assembly Executive Director.
At the inaugural meeting, the members reviewed issues for the remainder
of 2008, as well as upcoming priorities for 2009 – including the
March 1-3 National Advocacy Conference in our Nation’s Capital and
the passage of the Armenian Genocide resolution.
"I look forward to working very closely with each and every member,"
stated Assembly Western Region Director, Yeghig Keshishian. "The key
to developing a strong and effective grassroots effort is to bring
in individuals that have left a positive imprint on the surrounding
Armenian communities.
Working within this dynamic framework, I am confident we will further
strengthen and build on the Assembly’s successes."
