We Are The American Legion

​

Veterans helping Veterans here in Burke County, North Carolina. As the nation's largest VSO, we relentlessly champion veterans and service members on Capitol Hill, support military families, and are dedicated to preventing veteran suicide.

Today, the No. 1 issue facing the veteran community is suicide. The mission of The American Legion's Be The One initiative is to reduce the rate of veteran suicide. We're actively working on lessening the stigma associated with mental health treatment and empowering everyone to take appropriate action when a veteran or service member may be at risk – one life at a time. 

​

Whether you're a veteran or the friend or family-member of a veteran, you can Be The One.

VA has a variety of mental health resources, information, treatment options and more—all accessible to Veterans, Veterans’ supporters and the general public. Explore the pages to learn more about a specific mental health topic or to find information specifically tailored to your needs.
