Types of Membership

General Membership
The only authorized form of membership is active membership, of which there are two classes --- Senior and Junior. Granting special or honorary membership for any purpose or reason whatsoever is prohibited. Junior members are defined as that group under the age of eighteen years. Upon reaching eighteen years of age, junior members shall automatically be admitted into senior membership with full privileges. However, a member under the age of eighteen years who is married shall be classified as a senior member. Once accepted as Senior Auxiliary members, these women may continue their membership from year to year whether or not their veteran relatives continue membership in The American Legion. The fact that a member’s service relative is no longer a member of The American Legion does not compel the Auxiliary member to lose her Auxiliary membership. Membership Application

Honorary Life Membership
Created for Units who confer Honorary Life Membership on outstanding members. Each Department shall establish its own rules for conferring Honorary Life Memberships and certification of these memberships. Special Note: Honorary Life Memberships may not be transferred from Unit to Unit; nor Department to Department; nor from one member to another member.

PUFL Membership
Any member in good standing whose membership dues are paid for the current year may become Paid Up For Life member PUFL), which is the Auxiliary’s Paid-Up-for-Life membership program.
