Events
Phase I clinics are large spay / neuter events where
the Task Force provides all the materials and needs to set up a
clinic with up to six surgical tables. The Task Force recruits the
veterinarians and vet techs, a few experienced volunteers, and helps
with publicity and educational materials.
Phase II are smaller, regularly scheduled spay /
neuter events funded mostly by the host community.
