NALPA (National American Legion Press Association)
NALPA encourages the exchange of ideas; promotes the development of local newsletters and public relations activities; strives to communicate the corporate goals of The American Legion family organizations and recognizes achievement through an annual newsletter and newspaper awards program.
Today, the fastest growing posts, units and squadrons within The American Legion family all have a successful newsletter to communicate with their members. Leaders within The American Legion family today recognize and accept the fact that the majority of the members never make it to the post home. A newsletter is the best, most cost-effective, tool to keep non-active members informed. And, by keeping them informed you never know when an activity will spark their interest and you'll have a more active member.
