March For Our Lives has evolved into a 300-chapter nationwide organization that helps draft anti-gun legislation and regularly files amicus briefs in gun-related lawsuits. Some of the original founders have left, taken a step back or moved on to other issues. But nearly four years after the shootings, the twenty-somethings have managed to keep the organization going and youth-led.
