Attempts to Fix the Great Depression

CIVILIAN CONSERVATION CORPS
I'm really excited about the new program Roosevelt will be enacting. Its called the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC). The program employs young men on government lands and pays their family small monthly sums. This program will really help my family because my brother is finally of age to work. I really hope he's able to get into this program.

The CCC put boys to work on public projects and infrastructure like building a park or a bridge.
