Upcoming Events:
PASHA is a proud member of the Iranian American 2010 Census Project Coalition.
The census is a count of everyone living in the United States. This includes people of all ages, races, and ethnic groups, as well as both citizens and non-citizens. Like many ethnic groups, Iranian Americans have traditionally been undercounted; the 2000 Census count of our community was only 338,000. This is a problem as it undermines our access to a variety of social services. The only solution is for us to register our Iranian origin, and to be counted by the Census Bureau.
The Iranian American 2010 Census Coalition is taking a proactive role to try and ensure that our community’s statistics are accurately reflected and that it has access to key services and an enhanced political voice. With that in mind, the coalition has assembled an informational and instructional pamphlet, available both in English and Persian, to answer questions about the U.S. Census.
Simultaneously, the coalition is developing customized messaging and communication tools specific to the Iranian American population to be rolled out nationally over the coming weeks, to help raise awareness about the U.S. 2010 Census campaign among all of the Iranian American households and communities nationwide.

Come to our
2nd general meeting:
MD - The
Making of a Doctor
(A Documentary)
Nova follows
seven Harvard medical students
as they begin their rigorous educational
process: from the early days of confusion
and bewilderment through grueling medical
apprenticeships and sleepless nights on
call; to the rewarding early years of firmly
establishing a reputation in their chosen
medical specialties. Candid first-person
accounts shed new insight on medical life
and reveal the very human side of doctors:
the fears, sacrifices, fatigue,
disappointments and triumphs, as well as the
toll medicine can take on personal lives.
When:
Monday November 3rd @ 5:30 PM
Where: MS 5128 |
