St. Gregory Men’s Forum Hosts Armenian Assembly Town Hall Briefing on
Advocacy Initiatives

 

PASADENA, CA – Upon an invitation from the
Men’s Forum of St. Gregory the Illuminator Armenian Church of Pasadena,
California, the Armenian Assembly of America’s (Assembly) Executive Director,
Bryan Ardouny, will be delivering a Town Hall Briefing at the church on
Thursday, October 12. Ardouny’s presentation will take place concurrently with
the Men’s Forum monthly dinner, for which ladies and families are warmly
welcome to attend.

 

Having
recently returned from a trip to Armenia, Ardouny will cover a wide range of
advocacy issues of concern to the Armenian American community, including the
security situation of the citizens of Armenia and Artsakh with the backdrop of
incessant Azerbaijani acts of aggression since the Artsakh conflict’s
escalation in April 2016. In addition, Ardouny will discuss recent developments
in the United States Congress aimed at buttressing decades of robust
U.S.-Armenia and U.S.-Artsakh relations, including continued U.S. foreign
assistance to both Armenia and Artsakh. Ardouny will also shed light on the
Assembly’s grassroots advocacy efforts to generate greater involvement by
Armenian Americans in educating elected officials at all levels of government
on the Armenian Genocide.

 

The Town
Hall Briefing and dinner will commence at 7:00
PM on October 12
, and take place at St. Gregory the Illuminator Armenian
