The American Legion, founded in 1919 by an Act of Congress after World War I, serves as the nation's largest Veterans Service Organization (VSO), advocating for the needs of veterans, service members, and their families. With a commitment to destigmatizing mental health support and empowering individuals to prevent veteran suicide, the organization provides vital resources and community programs.

With over a century of impactful service, the American Legion has strengthened local communities through various initiatives, including youth programs like American Legion Baseball and educational opportunities. The organization plays a crucial role in securing record amounts in VA disability benefits and fostering civic engagement among young people through programs such as Boys State and oratorical contests.
