Why was the freedman's bureau established?

After the Civil War, a group called "Radical Republicans" passed several bills to aid the freedmen in the South. One of those bills increaced the role of the Freedmen's Bureau.The Freedmen's Bureau was used to help less wealthy black and whites alike.The bureau would help the freedmen by finding them jobs and giving them food and clothing. The agency even established schools and hospitals in the South, for freedmen of all ages. Congress was originally going to fund the agency for a year, however they began to realize how much good the Freedmen's Bureau was doing they kept funding it. Although the agency was a good cause, many (including some freedmen) critized the bureau. Bad bureau officials and slow response to freedmen's needs where often heard complaints. The Freedmen's Bureau was orginally established to help freedmen by educating them, feeding them and teaching them how to make a living as a freed slave.

What was the freedmen's bureau and who did it help?

The Freedmen's Bureau was an organization that was started after the Civil War to help the newly freed slaves... it was there to help slaves adapt to their new freedom and to help to educate them.. so they would be able to read and write. ** note: While it was set up to help former slaves we find that often those directly involved in the Freedman Bureau abused their position and used their power to abuse the Southerns.. that they felt needed punishing for the war.
