Freedom Park in Jacksonville, Florida, is a significant cultural landmark that commemorates the Gullah Geechee community, recognized as direct descendants of slaves who settled along the Coastal Lowlands from North Carolina to North Florida. Established in October 2020, this park features a central monument dedicated to the Cosmo Gullah Geechee PTSD Veterans, highlighting the area's rich history and connection to fishing and love, as described by local Pastor Joe Cooper.

Situated at the intersection of McCormick and Fort Caroline Roads in East Jacksonville, Freedom Park offers a variety of amenities including recreational areas, walking trails, picnic shelters, and a dog park. This beautifully manicured greenspace serves as the first public space in Jacksonville to honor and recognize the history and contributions of the Gullah Geechee community.
