This legislation aims to create the National Freedom Settlements Preservation Program within the National Park Service, focusing on recognizing, preserving, and promoting the history of Freedmen's Settlements established by formerly enslaved African Americans after the Civil War. The program seeks to address the historical neglect of these communities by providing resources for their revitalization and cultural preservation. Key provisions include the establishment of the program managed by the Secretary of the Interior, who will oversee the allocation of grants to eligible entities.
