PanARMENIAN.Net - The Armenian Assembly of America (Assembly) announced the opening of its Eastern Region Office in New York City, which will be staffed by the Assembly's Bianka Kadian-Dodov.

Dodov will be responsible for increasing the Assembly's grassroots outreach and activities in New York and the tri-state area, as well as focus on development and membership initiatives in the region. Working with Assembly headquarters in Washington, DC, Dodov will also assist the government affairs agenda with a specific focus on the New York delegation.

"With her work on both the 2007 and 2010 Armenian Genocide resolutions, Bianka's first-hand experience in government relations, as well as her active community involvement, will prove invaluable as she takes on new responsibilities," said Executive Director Bryan Ardouny.

In addition to her new role in New York, Dodov, who spearheaded the Assembly's Congressional relations program in DC, will also serve as the Assembly's United Nations (UN) representative to the UN Committee on Human Settlements. In 1999, the Armenian Assembly was granted Special Consultative Status as an NGO (non-governmental organization) with the Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC) of the United Nations.

"The Armenian Assembly is the premier organization dedicated not only to the education and affirmation of the Armenian Genocide, but to a strong, vibrant, and democratic Armenia," said Dodov. "I am thrilled to have the opportunity to expand the Assembly's leadership role within the community, the U.S. Government, and the United Nations."
