American Legion

The American Legion, founded by an Act of Congress in 1919, is the nation's largest Veterans Service Organization (VSO) dedicated to advocating for the unique needs of veterans, service members, and their families. With a commitment to destigmatizing mental health support and preventing veteran suicide, the organization provides peer-to-peer resources and empowers individuals to take action through its "Be The One" initiative.

Over its century-long history, The American Legion has strengthened communities by promoting youth programs such as American Legion Baseball and Boys State, while also securing significant benefits for veterans through accredited service officers. Through various advocacy efforts and community engagement, The American Legion continues to inspire service and dedication among Americans, ensuring that those who protect the nation receive the support they deserve.
