Effective January 2023, The American Legion Dispatch goes to a digital-only format.
Effective January 2023, The American Legion Dispatch goes to a digital-only format, reaching more officers and leaders of the organization more frequently with a greater portfolio of resources. The last printed version will be the December 2022 issue.
The Digital Dispatch currently has more than 30,000 subscribers and growing. Enhancements to the monthly e-newsletter and a more robust web platform is now in production to make the Digital Dispatch a more valuable tool for post, district and department leadership.
The digital format also allows Legionnaires at every level of the organization to receive information on such topics as membership recruitment and retention, program delivery and guidance for officers at every level. The printed Dispatch has been mailed only to post adjutants, department leadership and district commanders. The printed publication has about half the circulation of the digital version. The ability to go fully digital expands the audience reach to ensure that more officers – such as committee chairpersons and program managers – have access to information they need. It also offers the ability to deliver important information in a more timely manner.
An emailed Digital Dispatch is now sent monthly to subscribers, featuring a roundup of top headlines with clickable links to the stories that are housed on the Dispatch landing page, legion.org/dispatch. This will be the standard format moving forward with enhanced features now in development. The Digital Dispatch is free of charge for anyone who registers to receive it.
