Joshua McCarver (USMA ‘07) is the founder of Academy Politics, a nonprofit focused on recruiting, educating, and connecting Service Academy graduates who want to transition into politics. Academy Politics focuses on improving the bipartisan problem-solving nature of government while working to put more veterans into public office at the local, state, and national levels.
In this episode, Josh and I discuss:
- Why it is important to get more veterans into public office
- How his organization started with a Facebook group in 2018
- Academy Politics’ training partners and the network that supports Service Academy graduates interested in running for office
- The lessons he learned at West Point and during his military career that are helping him grow the Academy Politics community
