ANC-WR Welcomes New Chairman Vicken Sonentz-Papazian
Los Angeles, CA - The Armenian National Committee - Western Region
(ANC-WR) this week welcomed long time activist Vicken Sonentz-Papazian
as its new chairman. Originally from Watertown, Massachusetts,
Papazian has been involved with the Armenian National Committee of
America (ANCA) since 1985.
"I look forward to building on the impressive successes of the
ANC-WR," stated Papazian. "This is a great opportunity to work with
the board of directors and community leaders," he added.
In addition to working at the ANCA office in Washington D.C. from
1985-1987, Papazian also served as the ANCA Executive Director from
1991-1993. He joined ANC-WR as the executive director from 1995-2000
shortly after.
Papazian, who has been a licensed attorney since 1991, is admitted to
practice law in California and the District of Columbia. He has been
instrumental in promoting Armenian issues on Capitol Hill, within the
United Nations and on the state, county and local levels.
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.
