What is the CCC IN 1933?

The Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) was a New Deal program established in 1933 during the Great Depression to provide jobs for young, unemployed men. It focused on environmental conservation projects, such as reforestation, soil erosion control, and the development of national parks. Participants lived in camps and received training while earning a wage that was often sent home to support their families. The CCC played a significant role in both economic recovery and natural resource preservation in the United States.
