[Nfbc-info] FW: New Opening - IDA Program Assistant - Part Time Position 20 Hours Per Week

[Lisa Irving]

Hello All, 

 

 

I previously volunteered for this organization. Once the HR person gets past the characteristic of blindness and service dogs he’s a decent person. The agency is a bit disorganized. However, their heart is absolutely in the right place.
