Freedmen's Bureau
One agency that helped former slaves was called the American Missionary Association and was a part of the Congregational Church (now a part of the United Church of Christ). The AMA founded colleges (among other things) to educate freed slaves. Six of those colleges are:
Fisk University, Talledega College, Tougaloo College, Huston-Tillotson University, LeMoyne-Owen College, and Dillard University.

During the Civil War, Congress took advantage of the absence of southerners in the House and Senate to do all of the following, except
poor white southerners, plantation owners, and black southerners

Yes. That was what the war was about. Preceding the war, southerners had slaves and the northerners didn't think it was right. Therefore, the Civil War happened. Hope this helped! Mckennaj

The southerners had to change their diets during the Civil War. They ate potatoes, bread, salted pork, peas, and apples.

The Southerners farmed COTTON, the Civil War.
Southerners generally viewed the Freedmen's Bureau with suspicion and hostility. Many white Southerners resented the bureau's efforts to assist formerly enslaved people, seeing it as an infringement on their rights and a tool of federal overreach. The bureau's focus on promoting education and civil rights for African Americans was perceived as a threat to the social order that had existed prior to the Civil War. This antagonism contributed to ongoing tensions during the Reconstruction era.
Fully 3/4 of southerners did not own slaves at the eve of the Civil War.
