Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book epitomizes the evolution of social welfare in the United States over the past two decades, as seen through the lens of the National Conference of Charities and Correction (NCCCC). The author highlights the NCCCC's pivotal role in shaping public discourse on issues like poverty, mental illness, disability, juvenile delinquency, and child welfare, focusing on the period between 1874 and 1893. The text chronicles the significant influence of this organization in promoting legislative reforms, establishing state boards of charities, and fostering the development of charitable organizations, leading to the establishment of orphanages, child-saving societies, reformatories, and a host of other institutions. The book also traces the impact of the NCCCC on social work education and practice, and its advocacy for the rights of the marginalized. By examining the conference's proceedings, this book offers a valuable perspective on the history of social welfare in the United States.
