The team invites you to identify a county you want to help us "complete." Adopting a county will mean you will collect stories, images, photos, surveys, documents, maps, and other material and scan it so it can be uploaded to our TXFC Project Atlas and Database. With your help, we can locate, map, and host mini-archives for every county where freedom colonies are located.
Complete the form below to be matched with your corresponding county and region, where you will learn to work with a small group to organize and upload data together. To be a captain or what we call a participant researcher, request a different form by emailing: freedomcoloniesproject@gmail.com
