Answer:

Provide work relief for young men.

Explanation:

Franklin Roosevelt after becoming President introduced “new deal” for the American people. The Civilian Conservation Corps was established to relieve unemployment during the Great Depression by providing public work program, which operated from 1933 to 1942. Young men from ages 17–28 unemployed and unmarried allowed to take benefit of this new plan in America.
