What program was designed to give wholesome activity in the forestry service to unemployed young men?

The Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) was a New Deal program created in 1933 in response to the Great Depression, aimed specifically at providing employment for young men who were struggling to find work. The CCC focused on the conservation and development of natural resources in rural lands. Participants engaged in various activities, such as reforestation, building bridges, trails, and camping areas, and improving parks. This program not only contributed to the economic support of young men by providing them with jobs and wages but also fostered a sense of community and responsibility towards the environment. The CCC was essential in addressing both the unemployment crisis and large-scale conservation efforts during a pivotal time in American history.
