AMERICAN LEGION - NJ Post 0304

The American Legion, established in 1919 through an Act of Congress, stands as the nation's largest veteran service organization, dedicated to advocating for the needs of veterans, service members, and their families. With a commitment to destigmatizing mental health support, the organization provides peer-to-peer resources and works diligently to prevent veteran suicide.

In addition to its advocacy efforts, the American Legion fosters youth development through programs like American Legion Baseball and Boys State, while also providing significant grants for child well-being initiatives. Their impact is evident in the substantial amount of VA benefits secured for veterans and the increased participation in programs designed to empower young leaders and strengthen local communities.
