The Assembly of Turkish American Associations (ATAA) is seeking a full-time Program Director for its WashingtonD.C.office. Responsibilities will include planning, coordination and implementation of programs and projects both in the United Statesand abroad. Interested candidates are expected to work in a team setting and collaborate with other ATAAstaff, volunteers, chapter organizations, NGOs, businesses, and government entities.
The founding principle of ATAA was the need to create cohesion and cooperation between the large numbers of social/cultural Turkish American organizations around the US. The Assembly's main goal is to be a link between all communities, large or small, and pursue their interests in Washington and beyond. The main objectives of ATAA are two-fold. One is to create an informed national Turkish American community that can help foster US-Turkish relations and take an active part in promoting a balanced and truthful picture of Turkey in the US. The other is to educate Americans in government, the media and the public at large about Turkey and issues that concern us as Turkish Americans.
