When the Living New Deal began documenting the New Deal’s public works a decade ago, we never imagined what a vast undertaking it would be. To date, our online map features 16,000 New Deal sites but there are tens of thousands more sites still to be discovered.
The Living New Deal is looking for people to join our team of National Associates—volunteers of all ages and backgrounds who sleuth out what the New Deal left to their communities for the Living New Deal‘s growing website.
What our National Associates have in common is a wish to keep the New Deal legacy alive and as a model for public policy today. If you are interested in the history and the ideals of the New Deal, we invite you to get in touch about becoming a National Associate. Please write to elliottmedrich@livingnewdeal.
