The Armenian National Committee – Western Region (ANC-WR) this week welcomed community activist Ani Garabedian as its Management Consultant. Garabedian recently relocated to Los Angeles from Toronto, Canada where she has been active within the Armenian community for several years.

“We are excited to welcome Ani to our team,” said ANC-WR Chairman Raffi Hamparian. “Ani brings valuable experience and perspective to our efforts, and her dedication to the Armenian Community in Toronto over the years serves as an example of what she brings to the organization and the community,” he added.

Garabedian is a graduate of the University of Toronto with a degree in Political Science and History. She has been an active member of the Armenian Community in Toronto from a young age. Garabedian served on the executive council and has been a member of AYF Toronto, Homenetmen Toronto and the Armenian Student Association at the University of Toronto. 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.
