    ANC-WR Provides Educational Update On Genocide Resolution At United Armenian
    Congregational Church

    Los Angeles, CA - The Armenian National Committee-Western Region provided an
    analysis of the genocide resolution pending in the U.S. Congress to members
    of the Mens Fellowship Club at the United Armenian Congregational Church in
    Studio City on November 27, 2007.  The briefing,  provided by ANC-WR
    Chairman Raffi Hamparian, gave the crowd of over 70 Armenian Americans an
    opportunity to learn about the genocide resolution and its consideration by
    the House Foreign Affairs Committee last month.

    `The ANC-WR is pleased to have provided an educational presentation to
    members of the Mens Fellowship Club,' remarked ANC-WR Executive Director
    Andrew Kzirian.  `Whether it is providing educationals on Armenian topics to
    Rotary and Kiwanis Clubs, or to Armenian groups, we welcome engaging people
    on any number of Armenian issues.  The briefing that our chairman provided
    on the genocide resolution is part of a broad grassroots effort to keep all
    Armenian Americans aware of the challenges we have and continue to face in
    seeking justice for the events of 1915,' Kzirian added.

    The Mens Fellowship Club at the United Armenian Congregational Church
    regularly hosts speakers on a variety of religious and public policy
    issues.  The ANC-WR briefing provided members a full accounting of the
    history behind the genocide resolution sponsored by Representatives Adam
    Schiff (D-CA) and George Radanovich (R-CA) and a synopsis of what may occur
    to the bill during the second session of the 110th Congress which begins
    next January.

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