sure everyone knows that the candidate who is hired to fill this
position will be responsible for running the Division of Blind Services.
Most people probably understood that from the message and from the job
posting; however, since the title is "Assistant Commissioner", I wanted
to clarify. It would be great to have a competent, blind person in this
position. I hope some of you apply.<br><br>Best regards,<br>Norma Crosby<br><br><blockquote
