Zach is staying plenty busy after the video of his testimony went viral, traveling the country talking to many different audiences about his (rather boring) experience growing up with two lesbian mothers, why the struggle for LGBTQ rights is so important and where he thinks the fight goes from here. He’s working with a number of different LGBTQ rights groups in a consulting role and continues to work on protecting and advancing those rights at home in Iowa.

Currently, he’s leading a national campaign with his organization Scouts for Equality to end the Boy Scouts of America’s ban on gay members. You can read more about his work here.

Iowa City Learns, Zach’s small business, is continuing to grow and prosper. 2010-2011 was a record-breaking year and they’ve got their eyes set on an even better year in 2013-2014.
