Public Libraries Chronology: Events Relating to the History of the Health, Education, and Welfare of Children and Youth, (1865-1932). Selected Bibliography. Index. Summary; Although the number of people under twenty years of age in the United States rose from 17 million in 1860 to 47.6 million in 1930, the percentage of them in the total population declined sharply during the same seventy years from 51 percent to 38 percent. This declining proportion of children and young people to adults did not lessen concern for their welfare. On the contrary, as they became relatively less numerous, the young became in a way more visible, and their needs were more easily recognized.This second of three volumes that trace the history of the nation's changing provisions for its youth covers the period from the end of the Civil War to the beginning of the New Deal. These were years rich in innovations which, although not fully realized, represented substantial advances in the welfare, education, and health of children. Much of the philanthropic energy of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries went into the provision of special facilities for children, who had formerly been treated in the same way as adults. State, and in some eases, federal legislation attempted to safeguard children against premature, excessive, and dangerous labor; sought to protect them against abuse. neglect, immorality, disease, and unsanitary surroundings: and compelled them to spend more time in school. The first White House Conference on the Care of Dependent and Neglected Children was convened by Theodore Roosevelt in 1909, and in 1912 the United States Children's Bureau was established. This single most important development in public provision for children during the early twentieth century signified the acceptance by the federal government of responsibility for promoting the health and welfare of the young.In this two--book volume, major topics like the legal status of children, child health, and education have been broken down into specific areas so that the items of specialized concern are easil.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the emergence of poverty as a recognized social problem in America, moving beyond the earlier understanding of it as an individual's failing. It charts the shift in American consciousness from the 19th century's acceptance of poverty as an inevitable consequence of p…ersonal shortcomings to a growing awareness of the broader societal forces contributing to hardship. The author examines how industrialization, urbanization, and immigration created new forms of poverty in the bustling cities, exposing a harsh reality that contrasted with the nation's burgeoning prosperity. This book delves into the evolution of attitudes toward poverty, from the traditional religious view of poverty as a test of faith to the rise of social Darwinism, which framed it as a natural consequence of competition. Through detailed accounts of reformers, social workers, and writers of the era, the book illuminates the origins of the humanitarian reform movements that emerged in the early 20th century. It underscores the crucial role of philanthropy and social work in challenging the individualistic interpretation of poverty and advocating for social change. This book offers a fascinating glimpse into a pivotal period in American history, revealing the changing understanding of poverty and the powerful forces that shaped social reform. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
