The Job Corps is a program established by the United States Department of Labor. It offers free education and vocational training to young men and women and provides them with specific job opportunities.

The Job Corps were a part of the national war on poverty in the 1960's. The Economic Opportunity Act of 1964 was President Johnson's response to increasing unemployment and rising poverty in America.

The Job Corps offer career paths, career technical training, various educational and vocational opportunities.

As a result of introducing this program, crime rate among the poor lowered and many were offered better-paid jobs.

Why did Romans mistreat Christians ​
alex41 [277]
Although it is often claimed that Christians were persecuted for their refusal to worship the emperor, general dislike for Christians likely arose from their refusal to worship the gods or take part in sacrifice, which was expected of those living in the Roman Empire.

Why did paying of the Plymouth colony's debt help the colony succeed?
Luba_88 [7]

<u><em>The fur trade industry was the colony’s economic salvation</em></u>. For the first few years that the colony existed, the colonists struggled to make enough money to pay the investors back. In fact, they had to ask for more money just to keep the colony running and by the mid to late 1620s, they were deeply in debt to the investors.

<u>To help pay down the debt they still owed</u>, the colonists established a beaver fur trading base in Kennebec, Maine by 1625.  

<u>This fur trading business was very successful for the colonists and quickly became an essential part of their economy</u>. Their success in this trade continued well into the 1630s and 1640s..
