    Julie: I’m very interested in the Chief Advancement Officer position with The Wilds in Cumberland, Ohio. However, I live permanently in NE Ohio, near Cleveland. Do some of these positions allow for telecommuting? Also, I read from another posting that ELPC is slated to open a Cleveland, Ohio, office. Can you confirm whether that is true? And, if so, when it will open, as well as submitting resumes/applications in advance? Thank you.

    ELPC has only one Ohio staff member, who has already been hired.
