The American Legion, established by an Act of Congress after World War I, serves as the nation's largest veterans service organization, advocating for the needs of veterans, servicemembers, and their families. With a commitment to destigmatizing mental health support and offering peer-to-peer resources, the organization empowers individuals to engage in the critical fight against veteran suicide. Through a variety of programs, including youth initiatives like American Legion Baseball and Boys State, the American Legion strengthens local communities by celebrating those who contribute to a greater cause. Their ongoing advocacy has resulted in significant achievements, such as securing record amounts in VA disability benefits and providing grants to nonprofit organizations supporting young people facing challenges.
