IN OUR NATION'S CAPITAL

The American Legion is the nation's most influential, effective, and dependable advocate of veteran affairs fighting for better active-duty pay, improved housing for active-duty families and helping to ensure that the VA's medical system can properly care for veterans.
I really like that the Legion has opened up to all these things I didn't even know about.

(We want) veterans to understand that we're open, we're here for them,
and if they need somewhere to come, this is almost like a safe house.

The American Legion Riders provide an avenue for attracting younger veterans. The feeling they get, to ride with the Riders, provides great therapy for them as they enjoy fellowship with the fellow veterans.

These were important things. It helped them not get behind in their rent...
It helped them put food in the refrigerator.

helped more than 3,120 children whose active-duty families
were affected by the
federal government shutdown.
I was about to give up...
I wouldn’t have known where to go.
