Membership Goal 2024

Serving Veterans, Strengthening Communities!

At the heart of our nation’s commitment to honoring and supporting those who have served in the armed forces stands the American Legion.

The American Legion Department of Georgia has been a steadfast pillar in championing the rights and well-being of veterans, service members, and their families.

Our Mission: Honoring Service, Empowering Lives

At the American Legion, our mission is clear: to provide unwavering support to the men and women who have bravely defended our nation.

We are a non-profit organization driven by a passion for making a positive impact in the lives of those who have selflessly served our country.

Through a myriad of programs and initiatives, we strive to enhance the lives of veterans and their families, fostering a sense of camaraderie and community.

In a few words...

The American Legion Department of Georgia has evolved to meet the changing needs of veterans while staying true to our core values of service, integrity, and commitment.

Today, the No. 1 issue facing the veteran community is suicide, according to the National Veteran Suicide Prevention Annual Report. It is estimated that between 17 and 22 veterans or servicemembers take their lives each day. That’s more than 6,000 annually. The rate of suicide for veterans is more than 50% higher than that of non-veteran adults. As the Global War on Terrorism continues, there will be more veterans facing mental-health issues such as post-traumatic stress disorder. 

Become a Part of the American Legion Family!

Membership in the American Legion is open to all veterans who have served honorably, as well as active-duty service members. By joining our ranks, you become a part of a rich tradition of service and a network of individuals dedicated to making a difference.
