Explanation:

The First and Second New Deal were a series of federal programs and measures created to help the U.S. economy recover from the Great Depression, an economic downturn that impacted the lives of millions of Americans. The programs focused on providing aid especially to disadvantaged citizens, such as those most in need, the elderly, the poor, the low-income citizen, the retiree, the disabled, the dependent and the unemployed.

Some of the most efficient programs that provided relief to this group were the Social Security Act (1935), the Civilian Conservation Corps (1933), the Tennessee Valley Authority (1933) and the Works Progress Administration (1935).
