Veteran advocacy
Advocates for veterans, service members, and military families.
Founded in 1919, The American Legion advocates for veterans, service members, and military families. It offers peer-to-peer support and resources focused on mental health and veteran suicide prevention, including free suicide prevention training. The organization also provides accredited service officer assistance with federal benefits and appeals. Its programs extend to young people. These include American Legion Baseball, junior shooting sports, Boys State and Boys Nation, and an oratorical contest with scholarships. Members can access discounts, and the organization maintains a calendar of national events and training. Through its Grassroots Action Center, it encourages messages to Congress on veterans' legislative priorities. The American Legion also awards grants through its Child Well-being Foundation and scholarships for children of military personnel who died or became disabled while on active duty.
