Synopsis

The Civilian Conservation Corps was created in 1933 by U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt in response to the Nation;s dire unemployment and imperiled natural resources. The CCC had a great impact on Louisiana by employing youth to work on conservation projects throughout the State. Although the influence and accomplishments of the CCC have been recognized widely, there is little specific information on enrollees and camps in Louisiana.
