We’re continuing our four-part model video series this week by featuring our Mobilization Programs. Accompanying the premiere of our weekly videos, we have a four question blog series which highlights a staff member that works within that program.
Meet Zach Barrows. He is our Movement Director, a former teacher, a new dad, and most people around the office refer to him as Coach Barrows. As the head of our Movement Department, Zach orchestrates most of our Mobilization initiatives: he oversees our national film tours, manages IC|Citizen (the political advocacy wing of IC), and is one of the main brains behind the planning and execution of our international events (Cover The Night, MOVE:DC, Fourth Estate Summit, just to name a few). Without further ado…
