An Educational Initiative Aimed at Inspiring Visitors

Founded by dedicated community members, the ACCORD Freedom Trail pays tribute to the leaders and participants of the Civil Rights Movement. This historic trail is more than just a series of landmarks; it is a dynamic educational initiative designed to engage, inform, and inspire all who visit. 

Through educational programs, interactive activities, and commemorative events, the Freedom Trail brings to life the ongoing struggle for equality, justice, and inclusion faced by African Americans, particularly within the context of St. Augustine’s role in the Civil Rights Movement.

Driven by a Mission to Honor Civil Rights Leaders

In partnership with local, state, and national organizations, the ACCORD Freedom Trail organizes public discussions, lectures, and community-wide initiatives. These collaborative efforts ensure the city’s historical importance is recognized and remembered. 

The ACCORD Freedom Trail is a living testament to the power of community action, remembrance, and the enduring quest for equality in America.

Mission Statement
