The ASPCA’s Shelter & Veterinary Services (SVS) division is comprised of six teams: ASPCA Adoption Center in NYC; ASPCA Animal Hospital in NYC; Community Medicine in NYC, LA and Miami; Animal Poison Control Center, Client Services and Donor Communications in Urbana, IL; ASPCA Spay/Neuter Alliance in Asheville, North Carolina; and Shelter Outreach with initiatives focused on Shelter Medicine Services and Animal Relocation nationally as well as our Locations Based Initiatives in Los Angeles and Miami and a grant-funded shelter consultation program. This role has the unique opportunity to partner with colleagues across the entire division and serve as a critical linkage between major initiatives, so that we continue to maximize our impact on animal’s lives while optimizing internal resources.
