City/State Govt Relations
Wendeen H. Eolis was introduced to politics and government by her father, who served as a senior New York State official during her childhood. Following in his footsteps of public service, Wendeen has worked as an advisor to mayors, governors and state legislators - on both sides of the aisle - before assuming her current leadership role as Commander of HOPE's Champion Task Force.




In the mid-70s, while president of APCNY, the statewide personnel trade association, Ms. Eolis was credited by the New York State Senate, in a citation as a leading force in overhauling New York State's employment agency statute.
