We are honored to be recognized for our efforts to create opportunities where veterans and military families can thrive," said Julie Turpin, chief people officer.

“Earning the Military Friendly^® designation is more than a badge; it’s a reflection of deep-rooted values and strategic foresight. These organizations don’t just open doors for veterans, spouses, and service members; they build pathways for lasting impact. Their commitment isn’t performative; it’s transformative. It’s proof that honoring military talent is not only the right thing to do, it’s the smart thing to do," said Kayla Lopez, vice president of memberships at Military Friendly^®.
