Built to Last: The Legacy of the Civilian Conservation Corps in Minnesota
At the height of the Great Depression, a program took shape to provide work for unemployed young men that would teach them job skills, restore logged over forest, and take the concept of public parks from paper to reality. Just five days after taking office in 1933, President Roosevelt introduced a bill proposing the first of his New Deal programs and the most popular of them was the Civilian Conservation Corps.
