(July 3rd, ASBAREZ) WASHINGTON\u2014The Armenian National Committee of America<\/a> (ANCA) 2014 \u201cLeo Sarkisian\u201d interns quickly immersed themselves in the full range of Armenian American advocacy activities, as the program kicked off its 29th season of youth leadership training in the nation\u2019s capital.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe ANCA Leo Sarkisian interns have had an incredibly busy two weeks \u2013 working on everything from securing legislative support for \u2018Return of Churches\u2019 legislation to campaigning for Armenian American candidate Hrant Jamgochian, to protesting Turkey\u2019s targeted attacks on the Armenian community in Aleppo, Syria,\u201d said ANCA Legislative Affairs Director Raffi Karakashian. \u201cTheir energy, creativity, and tenacity all speak powerfully to their awesome potential as our next generation of leaders.\u201d<\/p>\n

From Boston and Los Angeles to Vancouver and the American Midwest, this year\u2019s intern group includes: Sevan Agopian, Tamar Alexanian, Anahis Kechejian, Inna Mirzoyan and Alina Sarkissian. All have been active in various Armenian American organizations such as the Armenian Youth Federation (AYF) and the Armenian Student Association (ASA).<\/p>\n

Within hours of arrival, the interns hit the ground running, joining with the ANCA of Greater Washington DC in calling on the White House to take immediate steps to stop the Turkey-supported bombing of Armenian communities in Aleppo, Syria. Then, the team turned their attention to pending Congressional foreign aid legislation, urging key Senate and House appropriators to support Artsakh assistance and a host of other Armenian American community priorities. Last week, their focus turned to the Turkey Christian Churches Accountability Act (H.R. 4347), which was adopted overwhelmingly by the House Foreign Affairs Committee.<\/p>\n

In between, interns honed their networking skills, participating in a professional development seminar organized by the the ANCA\u2019s Hovig Apo Saghdejian Capital Gateway Program and AGBU Young Professionals DC. In their rare off-hours, they volunteered for Hrant Jamgochian\u2019s campaign for Maryland State Delegate.<\/p>\n

The Leo Sarkisian Internship Program is an integral part of a growing effort to provide Armenian Americans greater opportunities to explore careers on Capitol Hill, in the foreign policy field, and in key Washington, DC, think tanks. It is a part of the larger ANCA \u201cHovig Apo Saghdejian\u201d Capital Gateway Program, which is designed to help university students and graduates find internships and permanent positions in Congressional offices as well as a host of other government agencies and political and policy-related groups.<\/p>\n

Interns, who each participate in a wide variety of projects based on their individual interests, are given the opportunity to gain hands-on experience within the American political system. They participate in a bi-weekly lecture series featuring guest lecturers, including U.S. and Armenian officials and Armenian American leaders.<\/p>\n

\u201cI hope that through the Leo Sarkisian Internship, I can amplify my passion and unceasing efforts to better help the Armenian culture and cause in both Vancouver and Toronto, in addition to learning and gaining invaluable experience under the guidance of our veteran ANCA DC team,\u201d says Agopian.<\/p>\n

Tamar Alexanian hails from the suburbs of Chicago and is currently enrolled in Vanderbilt University with a double major in English and Human and Organizational Development. Since the age of ten, Alexanian has been engaged in her local AYF Chicago \u201cArarat\u201d chapter, where she has held many key leadership positions.

Alexanian is a proud graduate of the Taniel Varoujan Armenian School.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am honored to be one of the Leo Sarkisian interns this summer because I enjoy grassroots organizational work and believe strongly in the purpose and goals of the ANCA,\u201d notes Alexanian. \u201cI know that the skills that I develop during this internship are valuable for me personally, but also for my larger community.\u201d<\/p>\n

In 2012 she started the project \u201cStand Up For Your Survivor\u201d which has been an important component of the annual Massachusetts State House Genocide Commemoration ceremony.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s an honor to be serving the Armenian community. I hope to collaborate with my fellow Leo Sarkisian interns on current Armenian issues and how we as the Diaspora can be involved in advancing our Cause. It\u2019s exciting to explore the perspectives of young American Armenians from all over the country,\u201d said an enthusiastic Kechejian. \u201cI hope to absorb as much information as I can while in Washington DC.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThrough the LSI experience, I hope to gain life skills and opportunities that are tailored specifically to my Armenian-American passions,\u201d says Sarkissian. \u201cI hope to give back to the Armenian community through this inspiring grassroots powerhouse, and I look forward to forming close relationships and lifelong friendships with my fellow interns.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI wish to learn more about grassroots activism and to teach the general public that being Armenian is not just an identity but also a cause, with issues that are important to all Americans\u2019 shared core values,\u201d says Mirzoyan.<\/p>\n
