The Works Progress Administration (WPA) was created in 1935 and aimed at creating jobs for the unemployed during the Great Depression. It employed millions of workers and at its height, it employed 25 percent of the nation's work force. The other options, while New Deal programs, did not employ as many workers as the WPA. The Civilian Conservation Corps (A) employed young men to work on conservation projects, the Federal Emergency Relief Administration (B) provided direct relief to the unemployed, and the Public Works Administration (C) provided funding for infrastructure projects but did not employ as many workers as the WPA.
