Answer: To help former slaves make the change to freedom

Details:

The Freedmen's Bureau was established by Congress in 1865, in the aftermath of the Civil War. The aim of the Bureau was to provide assistance to former black slaves (as well as poor whites) in the South during the Reconstruction period. The Freedmen’s Bureau provided food and housing, established schools, and made medical and legal assistance available. There was an intention of settling former slaves on land confiscated or abandoned during the war, but that didn't materialize. Radical Republicans took over dominance in Congress and they determined that confiscated lands in the South should be returned to their original owners.

The job of the Bureau was to help former slaves change into everyday people. They helped over 4 Million people transition. This is when the phrase, "<span>FORTY ACRES AND A MULE</span>" came into play.

Hope this Helps! :)
