One of the next big programs created early in the New Deal was the Civilian Conservation Corps. With unemployment continuing to skyrocket in the early days of the Depression, the CCC was created to employ men who weren't finding work to conserve the country's parks and forests. Over the next decade, the CCC would employ over 3 million men to plant trees, fight fires, build roads and create trails. It became one of the most successful programs. It was also far from the only jobs program for a country struggling to find consistent employment. In May, the Federal Emergency Relief Administration was created to create job and cash relief for struggling citizens. The 1930s were devastating to farmers, especially in the middle of the country. Thus, May saw not only the Agricultural Adjustment Act, which provided farmers subsidies if they reduced crops, but the Tennessee Valley Authority Act as well.
