New Deal Alphabet Agencies: Graphic Organizer

The New Deal was a series of economic programs and reforms implemented in the United States during the 1930s by President Franklin D. Roosevelt (FDR). It was a response to the severe economic crisis of the Great Depression, which began with the stock market crash in 1929.

The New Deal aimed to address the widespread unemployment, poverty, and economic instability that plagued the country. Its primary goals were relief for the unemployed and those in need, economic recovery, and reform to prevent future economic crises. The New Deal consisted of three main components, often referred to as the "Three Rs": Relief, Recovery, and Reform. Overall, FDR's New Deal represented a significant expansion of the federal government's role in the economy and social welfare, aiming to provide relief to those in need, stimulate economic recovery, and establish long-term reforms to prevent future economic crises.
