PACAN Leadership
Founded in 2019 and based in Los Angeles, the Persian American Civic Action Network (PACAN) is a 501(c)(3) and 501(c)(4) non-profit dedicated to empowering Iranian-Americans through civic engagement, community outreach, and activism.
PACAN works to bridge the gap between the United States and a free, democratic, secular Iran by offering expert analysis and policy recommendations on U.S.-Iran relations. Through in-depth research and open dialogue, we aim to shape responsible foreign policy and inform public discourse.
We also strive to raise awareness of Iranian-American history, culture, and contributions, fostering collaboration and partnerships rooted in shared values. By addressing key issues, building relationships, and exploring innovative solutions, PACAN is committed to creating lasting, meaningful change.
