The Freedmen's Bureau was established in 1865 to provide relief for all poor people, both Black and white, in the South following the Civil War. Its primary mission was to assist formerly enslaved individuals in transitioning to freedom, but it also offered support to impoverished white families. The Bureau provided food, housing, medical care, and education, and aimed to facilitate the integration of freed people into society. Despite facing significant challenges and opposition, it played a crucial role in the Reconstruction era.
