The main focus of the New Deal reforms in providing relief during the Great Depression was threefold: relief for the unemployed, recovery of the economy, and reform of the financial system. Under President Franklin D. Roosevelt, a series of government programs were initiated to assist those suffering from widespread unemployment and poverty. Initiatives like the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) and the Works Progress Administration (WPA) aimed to provide jobs, while Social Security was established to prevent future economic hardships. The New Deal also included financial reforms, such as the Glass-Steagall Act, to stabilize banking practices and restore public confidence in the economy, shaping modern welfare policies.
