American Legion
The American Legion, founded in 1919 by an Act of Congress after World War I, is the largest veteran service organization in the United States, dedicated to advocating for the unique needs of veterans, service members, and their families. With a commitment to destigmatizing mental health issues and preventing veteran suicide, the organization provides peer-to-peer resources and champions military families on Capitol Hill.
Over its century-long history, the American Legion has developed vital programs such as American Legion Baseball and the Oratorical Contest, which focus on youth development and leadership. The organization also actively engages in community spirit initiatives, securing record amounts in VA disability benefits while providing grants to nonprofits that support young people facing challenges.
