Department President: Kristin Jones 2025- 2026
As we welcome the month of April, we also welcome the beauty and renewal that spring brings. It’s a time of growth, fresh beginnings, and continued dedication to our mission of service to veterans, military members, and their families.
I hope many of you will be able to join us for our Past Presidents’ Spring Parley on April 25 th . This is always a meaningful opportunity to come together, share ideas, celebrate our accomplishments, and strengthen the bond we have as members of the Department of Connecticut. Your presence and participation truly make a difference.
April is also recognized as the Month of the Military Child—a time to honor the strength, resilience, and sacrifices of the children in military families. These young individuals serve in their own way, facing unique challenges with courage and pride. I encourage each of you to take a moment this month to recognize and support military children in your communities, whether through a small act of kindness, a program, or simply raising awareness.
As always, thank you for your continued commitment, compassion, and service. Everything you do helps make a lasting impact.As March arrives, we will hopefully begin to see the first signs of spring—a season of renewal, growth, and fresh beginnings. It is a wonderful reminder of the continued impact each of you makes through your service and dedication to the mission of the American Legion Auxiliary.
Spring brings new opportunities to reconnect, refocus, and recommit ourselves to serving our veterans, military members, and their families. Your ongoing support through volunteering, attending meetings, participating in programs, and reaching out in your communities truly makes a difference. Whether you are organizing events, supporting our VA hospitals, mentoring youth, or simply offering a kind word, your efforts reflect the heart of our organization.
March is also a perfect time to look ahead to upcoming activities and prepare for a busy and meaningful season. Your involvement strengthens not only our units but our entire Auxiliary family. Together, we continue to honor those who have served and ensure they are never forgotten.
Thank you for your dedication, compassion, and commitment. May this spring season bring you renewed energy, inspiration, and pride in all that you do.
For God and Country,
Kristin Jones
Department of Connecticut President
