Lori Behrman, The Toby Project
In this episode, Stacy talks with Lori Behrman, who runs the day-to-day operations of the Toby Project, including the mobile spay/neuter clinic. Lori has been with the Toby Project since Day One, and she considers her work not just a job, but a mission. She tells Stacy about how Dr. Andy Kaplan, founder of the Toby Project (CCP Episode 339) inspired her to get involved eleven years ago, and about how much she has learned since then about the concepts of spay/neuter, no-kill, and pet overpopulation.
Stacy and Lori discuss the specifics of how the mobile clinic operates, the work it's currently doing in Yonkers (in addition to its normal work in New York City), and the clinic's staffing model. They talk about the challenges of running a mobile clinic, including winter weather and equipment issues. Lori notes that "it is an expensive endeavor to run a mobile unit," and suggests that anyone thinking of starting one takes the time to talk with others who have already done so to learn all they can.
