Have you checked in on a veteran buddy lately? 💙 Peer support is one of the most effective tools in veteran mental wellness. Sometimes the most powerful thing you can do is just pick up the phone and say "Hey, I'm thinking of you." Let's look out for each other out there. A conversation can change a life.

Did you know the American Legion has been promoting Americanism and civic education for over 100 years? We believe in a strong, united America — built on respect, duty, and freedom. In Wisconsin, we work to promote patriotism, civic responsibility, and respect for our flag and Constitution in communities and schools.

Service doesn't end when the uniform comes off. The American Legion was founded on the belief that veterans continue to serve their communities long after their military careers end.
