Publisher: Whitworth College Shaping Youth, Sustaining Life: The Civilian Conservation Corps in the Northwest This 2004 audio presentation recounts the story "of men who either worked in CCC [Civilian Conservation Corps] camps in the Pacific Northwest, or who worked in camps across the nation and now call the Pacific Northwest their home." During the Great Depression, the CCC "provided over 3 million young men the opportunity to combat poverty, hunger and economic adversity" by offering conservation work in forests and parks. From Whitworth College, Spokane, Washington state. http://www.whitworth.edu/Library/Archives/CurrentProjects/CCC/ Topics: United States History Last updated Dec 19, 2008 |
