G.E.M. Environmental is a 501(c) 3 scientific charity headquartered in Prescott, Arizona.
We work with government agencies to conserve public lands, while connecting underserved STEM students to
integrated and collaborative educational programming. 

We are supported by local partnerships, grants, and generous donors. 
VISION: Create a community of learners enriched and engaged through STEM education.

MISSION: Provide unique educational opportunities for under-represented STEM students through paid internships, scholarships, and vocational training. Through our hands-on programs, students envision new educational goals, cultivate
relationships with industry professionals, and develop greater confidence in community engagement.

ACCESSIBILITY: We believe that science is for everyone, thus experience within the STEM fields should be made broadly accessible to people from all walks of life, regardless of age, race, creed, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity, disability, or socioeconomic status. 

COLLABORATION: G.E.M. Environmental welcomes partnerships with community institutions and schools that transcend academic disciplines and the boundary between campus and gaining career experience within the community. Click here to learn more about our current programs and how you can partner with us.
​
CONSERVATION: We are actively engaged in the conservation of public lands by providing data collection services, environmental monitoring/ maintenance, and remediation/ site clean-up for abandoned and potentially hazardous mining sites. All projects and closures are completed with the assurance of wildlife and cultural preservation under the direct supervision of environmental scientists who have dedicated themselves to our cause. 

We operate out of a mobile platform (re. travel trailer) equipped with an office, living quarters, UTV, and survey equipment situated on or adjacent to the project site. The mobile platform model minimizes overhead cost and keeps our contract bids on local, state, and federal government projects competitive.
