Programs by GSEP
Promoting science, conservation, and education on the Monument
Stewardship
We aim to restore, reclaim, preserve, and conserve Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument and adjacent landscapes. GSEP works with the Bureau of Land Management, the U.S. Forest Service, and the National Park Service to implement, manage, and evaluate the program through volunteer stewardship projects and hands-on visitor education through our volunteer Trail Ambassadors.
Conservation
We work with researchers, nonprofit Native American partner organizations, State and Federal government agencies, and volunteers to control invasive species, mitigate erosion, monitor climate and ecological change, and protect threatened species.
Native Plants
Contributing to national-scale restoration and research efforts, our Native Plants Program engages seed crews, Tribal partners, and volunteers in the collection and cleaning of seeds from native plants on and around the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument.
