The Gender Advancement and Parity in STEM (GAPS) program supports our work to reduce gender bias in our field. Donations to this program support a mentorship program and paid internships to people from marginalized genders and provide empowering real-world work experiences for people from marginalized genders exploring careers in biology and science.

The GAPS program has two arms: our GAPS Mentorship Program and our GAPS Workforce Development Program.

The Mentorship Program connects emerging with more seasoned environmentalists and scientists from marginalized genders together to network, support, and build capacity.

The Workforce Development Program offers paid internships to people from historically marginalized genders. These interns assist our biologists in one or more projects in the field, assist our support staff with advocacy projects, or create a new program of their choosing.
