The American Legion, founded in 1919 by an Act of Congress after World War I, is the nation's largest Veterans Service Organization dedicated to advocating for the unique needs of veterans, servicemembers, and their families. With a commitment to destigmatizing mental health support and providing peer-to-peer resources, the organization aims to prevent veteran suicide through initiatives like the "Be The One" campaign.
Beyond advocacy, the American Legion enriches local communities through various youth programs, scholarships, and events that emphasize values such as sportsmanship and leadership. The organization has secured significant disability benefits for veterans and awards grants to nonprofits focused on helping young people facing challenges.
