Mission Statement- TAL Department of Wyoming
The American Legion Department of Wyoming is guided by a mission to enhance
the well-being of America’s veterans, their families, the military, and communities
through “mutual helpfulness,” focusing on Veterans Affairs & Rehabilitation,
National Security, Americanism, and Children & Youth.
Our mission reflects the Legion’s core values of service, patriotism, and support
for those who serve. As your Commander, my role is to lead and uphold this
mission by:
- Advocating for veterans through legislative action, public awareness, and direct
support.
- Promoting national security and the values of Americanism.
- Supporting rehabilitation and well-being of veterans and their families.
- Engaging youth through scholarships, leadership programs, and community
service.
- Fostering comradery, and togetherness among the Legion, The Legion
Auxiliary, Sons of the American Legion, Legion Riders, and members at all levels.
The Commander’s leadership is expected to inspire and mobilize the Department’s
membership growth to better enable us to carry forward this mission, ensuring that the
Department of Wyoming remains a strong, active, and impactful voice for veterans and
their communities across the state.
