The Civilian Conservation Corps:
A Peaceful Revolution DVD
 During the darkest days of the Great
Depression, twenty-five percent of the nation's workforce
was hopelessly unemployed. America teetered on the brink of
a revolution. In desperation, President Franklin Roosevelt
created the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC), a program
which took unemployable young men off the streets and put
them to work in rural areas. There, they could work on the
country's woefully battered environment.
The CCC became Roosevelt's most
successful New Deal Program. From 1933 to 1942, the young
men replanted the nation's forests, checked soil erosion,
stopped the scourge of forest fires, built recreation sites
throughout the land, and completed countless other projects.
Simply put, the CCC saved our environment
This DVD chronicles this tumultuous time in American's History against
the backdrop of the Lumber Heritage Region. The DVD runs 66 minutes
