Neeb, K. 2013. The role and responsibilities of the enrichment coordinator. Enrichment Record 15, 17-20.

The challenges with being an Enrichment Coordinator can be as variable as your roles and responsibilities. But the rewards are just as great. As an Enrichment Coordinator, I am able to be part of bettering the research community. I support researchers in their goals and help them to maintain better animal models. I encourage them to understand ways they can work with the animals instead of against them. I also serve as an advocate for the animals in their environments to help ease the stress that any form of captivity can bring about.
