<description>&lt;p&gt;Jaclyn “Jackie” Corin is a co-founder and Executive Director of March For Our Lives, a leading youth-led advocacy organization working to end gun violence in the United States. A survivor of the 2018 mass shooting in Parkland, Florida, she helped catalyze one of the largest youth protests in American history and elevate gun violence as a central national issue. In the years since, she has led high-impact campaigns to hold the gun lobby and elected officials accountable and built one of the largest youth organizing networks in the country, supporting hundreds of student-led groups nationwide. As Executive Director, she leads March For Our Lives’ work at the intersection of advocacy, narrative change, and youth organizing, equipping young people across the country to drive political and cultural change in their communities.  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Jackie and I discuss her organization's efforts to mobilize young people, fight gun violence and achieve gun-reform legislation.  &lt;/p&gt;
