Our Community Meeting on May 1, 2009

In our May 1 st meeting we had the chance to listen to Mrs Bahareh Mashreghi who is a lawyer and practicing law in a general area. Our members had the opportunity to learn about some legal aspects of ICBC claims, Family sponsorships, Family separation, and Custody support. We appreciate Mrs Mashreghi coming to our meeting and giving us such important information.

Who We Are
Rooyesh means renewal, or in other words personal growth. As nature renews itself every year, we take it as our example and use it as a guide for the name of our group. Since practicing democracy is Rooyesh's most important goal, our group has established certain rules affiliated on the opinions of ALL group members, we are always open to new suggestions, comments and feedback. We are not here to be judgmental in anyway, and there is no wrong or right among us. We invite professional speakers to talk about certain subjects at given times, but every one is welcomed to bring interesting ideas to our discussions. So, to respect the freedom of speech and opinion, every one has the right to have her/his articles, pictures and movies (with the name of the source) on our site http://www.rooyeshgroup.blogspot.com/ which does not necessarily show the ideas of Rooyesh.
We invite every one to join our group.
Our meetings are free and held every other Friday from 6:30pm to 8:30pm in room #203 at Capilano Mall, North Vancouver.
Rooyesh does not belonging to any political party or religious group.
