The American Legion, founded in 1919 by an Act of Congress after World War I, is the nation's largest veteran service organization dedicated to advocating for the unique needs of veterans, service members, and their families. With a commitment to preventing veteran suicide and destigmatizing mental health support, the organization provides vital resources and programs to empower communities and support military families.
Over its century-long presence, The American Legion has secured substantial benefits for veterans, including record amounts in VA disability assistance and grants through its Child Well-Being Foundation. In addition to advocacy efforts, the organization fosters youth development through programs like American Legion Baseball and Boys State, promoting values of sportsmanship, leadership, and civic responsibility.
