Gary BostickGary is a former U.S. Army Psychological Operations Specialist and Military Police Platoon Leader with extensive experience in developing collaborative relationships, leading tactical teams, and managing critical operations.

The lack of relatable experiences and understanding in civilian life led him to create Junked: Powered by Veterans. We provide a psychologically safe environment for veterans, connecting them with essential resources and services to help them thrive in society. We offer veterans a sense of purpose through employment and actively support veteran organizations such as the Veterans of Foreign Wars, Disabled American Veterans, American Legion, and Delta Veterans Group.

Junked: Powered by Veterans has been recognized for its contributions, including furnishing homes for formerly homeless veterans and receiving accolades from the Veterans Administration Compensated Work Therapy program and the California Employer Advisory Council. These recognitions highlight the commitment to helping veterans recover, thrive, and find a sense of belonging in their post-military lives.
