In 2023, IPVE is releasing A FATHER’S PROMISE about professional musician and Sandy Hook Elementary parent Mark Barden who became a powerful voice for change in gun violence prevention. 

Directed by Rick Korn and Executive Produced by Sheryl Crow, A Father's Promise, is an important and powerfully inspiring story about professional musician Mark Barden whose life changed instantly when his son Daniel was murdered at Sandy Hook Elementary. Mark lost all joy in music and made a promise to do everything in his power to help prevent gun violence so that nobody ever has to feel his and his family’s pain. He gave up his career as a professional musician and created Sandy Hook Promise, a gun and teen violence prevention organization that is saving lives in schools across all 50 states. He has now embarked on playing more music and the next phase of his advocacy with the creation of Artist For Action To Prevent Gun Violence, which aims to make it easy for artists, athletes, actors, influencers and their fanbases to get involved in gun violence prevention in their communities. 

HeadCount is a non-partisan organization that uses the power of music to register voters and promote participation in democracy. We reach young people and music fans where they already are - at concerts and online - to inform and empower.
