What Was The Impact Of The New Deal On America During The Great Depression?
Content: Programs to produce relief to farmers, workers, and the economy. During the new deal, during the great depression many people were back to work. There were programs to provide relief through work projects and cash payments. There was an important program called the Civilian Conservative Corps (CCC). It put young men to work at the ages of 18-25, to work building roads, developing parks, planting trees and helping in soil-erosion and flood-control projects. When the program ended in 1942. about 3 million young men had passed the CCC. The CCC program has a small wage of $30 a month, but $25 of it was sent to the families. That supplied free food and uniforms and lodging in work camps. The men of the CCC program planted more than 200 million trees while working in the great plains.
