American Legion

The American Legion, founded by an Act of Congress after World War I, is the nation's largest veteran service organization, advocating for the unique needs of veterans, servicemembers, and their families. With a commitment to destigmatizing mental health support and preventing veteran suicide, the organization provides peer-to-peer resources and community programs that empower individuals to make a difference.

For over a century, the American Legion has strengthened American communities through its various programs and services, securing significant VA disability benefits and supporting youth development initiatives like American Legion Baseball and Boys State. Through grassroots advocacy and community spirit, the organization continues to inspire service and strengthen America by meeting the unique needs of local communities.
