Veteran visitation programs through Legion Branches
Many Legion Branches across the country coordinate volunteer visits to Veterans in retirement and long-term care
facilities in their community. These visits provide social interaction and a sense of community, and can help identify
needs that the Legion may be able to assist with. In the meantime, we encourage you to contact your local Legion
Branch to explore any local volunteering opportunities that may interest you.
Outreach and visitation through Veterans Affairs Canada
The Outreach and Visitation Initiative is currently suspended indefinitely as per Veterans Affairs Canada directives. We
will provide further updates and contact our current volunteers when additional information is received from Veterans
Affairs Canada. As of January 2024, there have been no updates. In the meantime, we encourage you to contact your
local Legion Branch to explore any local volunteering opportunities that may interest you.
Please contact your local Legion Branch for information on programs available through your Branch.
Legion services for Veterans and their families are always free and you do not need
to be a Legion member to access these services.
