β€œCivics for All of US” Teacher Workshopβ€”The Civilian Conservation Corps: Civics at Work

ΝώΔαΛΉΘΛΣιΐΦ³‘ Museum
Online

Thursday, March 30, 2023 - 7:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. EDT

Join the Franklin D. Roosevelt Presidential Library and Museum for this online teacher workshop that will provide resources for exploring how the development of a government "safety net" to protect Americans devastated by the Great Depression affected civic life. The Civilian Conservation Corp (CCC) is a great example to use in teaching about how the government responds to crises. By creating opportunities for unemployed young men, the CCC was an innovation in government and a model for future government programs benefiting families, cities, and rural communities.

This program is a part of Civics for All of US,  the national civic education initiative from the ΝώΔαΛΉΘΛΣιΐΦ³‘. Our interactive teacher workshops draw upon the vast holdings of the ΝώΔαΛΉΘΛΣιΐΦ³‘ to promote the knowledge, skills, and dispositions students need for civic engagement in the 21st century. Each program is led by one of our educators located at ΝώΔαΛΉΘΛΣιΐΦ³‘ sites, the Center for Legislative Archives, and Presidential Libraries across the country. Visit  for more information.
