ABOUT US

Headquartered in Washington, DC, the Armenian Assembly of America is the largest, non-partisan Armenian-American advocacy organization in the United States. 

Since 1972, the Assembly continues to promote public awareness of Armenian issues, encourage greater Armenian-American participation in the American democratic process, and assist in humanitarian and development programs in Armenia and Artsakh, while strengthening the U.S.-Armenia and U.S.-Artsakh relationships.

Vision

The Republic of Armenia will be secure and prosperous, made possible by democracy, the rule of law, advanced market reforms and a people in full and vigilant partnership with their government at all levels.

​

Via the direct participation of its duly elected leaders, Artsakh Republic’s final status – either as an independent state or as an integral and contiguous part of the Republic of Armenia – will be resolved, internationally recognized and guaranteed.

​

The Diaspora will be a vital partner for Armenia and Artsakh throughout the world and linked together in effective collaboration to advance pan-Armenia interests globally. A Diaspora-wide consensus will have been realized for the Republic of Armenia to deal with historic and contemporary questions that impact all Armenians.

​

In view of its ongoing growth in size, competence and reach, the Armenian Assembly of America will be the leading champion in deepening the U.S.-Armenia and U.S.-Artsakh relationships and will be in the forefront of a comprehensive, non-partisan, Diaspora-wide effort to irrevocably secure Armenia’s and Artsakh's freedom, democracy and security.

Mission

TO SUSTAIN and strengthen the organization as the community’s preeminent non-partisan advocate representing Armenian-American interests to the U.S. public and the policy-making community.

​

TO PROVIDE ever expanding opportunities for the active participation of all Armenian-Americans in the American democratic process at the federal, state and local levels.

​

TO EXPAND the organization's pioneering research, education, and advocacy campaigns for universal affirmation of the Armenian Genocide and to secure Diaspora-wide consensus for the government of the Republic of Armenia to deal with the consequences of this crime against humanity.

​

TO PROMOTE public and private civil society initiatives within Armenia and Artsakh, simultaneously maintaining the organization’s policy of non-interference in those societies’ internal affairs.

​

TO LEAD in securing increasingly more effective collaboration among Armenian-American organizations and to establish results-oriented working relationships with non-partisan advocacy entities and relevant individuals world-wide.
