The American Legion
The American Legion, founded in 1919 by an Act of Congress after World War I, 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 actively provides peer-to-peer resources and champions legislative efforts on Capitol Hill.
Through various programs such as American Legion Baseball, youth programs, and advocacy initiatives, The American Legion empowers communities and fosters a spirit of service among its members. Its long-standing tradition of supporting veterans has resulted in significant achievements, including securing billions in VA disability benefits and offering grants to support youth facing challenges.
