Established in 1865, The Freedman's Bureau was set up to help former black slaves and poor whites after the Civil War. It managed to provide food, shelter, build hospitals , schools, provide labor assistance and provide legal funds until a combination shortage of inadequate funds, personnel and continued protests from white southerners forced it to close.
