True

Explanation:

Unlike the Public Works Administration that was created as a construction agency in response to the Great Depression, the Civil Works Administration was only a temporary program for job creation that was established during the Great depression. Its aim was the creation of temporary manual-labor jobs for unemployed people from 1933 to 1934. This administration hired workers for mainly sponsored projects at the time and projects funded by the government.
