The 40th Anniversary to Commemorate the Civil Rights Demonstrations, Inc. (40th ACCORD) is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization established in 2003 and incorporated in 2004. Our Mission is "Remembering, Recognizing, and Honoring all those who risked their lives to attain civil rights for all and celebrating St. Augustine's pivotal role in the Civil Rights Act of 1964."   We are excited to introduce the 30 markers on the Freedom Trail Project presented by The Northrop Grumman Corporation.
