Why do some people want to reform society? “ God has made the human body to be sustained by food and sleep, and the mind to be invigorated by effort and the regular healthfulness of the moral system, and the cheering influence of his moral government. And whoever . . . applies habitually the stimulus of ardent spirits, does violence to the laws of his nature . . . and is intemperate long before the intellect falters. ” —from Reverend Lyman Beecher, “Six Sermons about Intemperance” Why do some people want to reform society?

Treatment of Mentally Ill and Challenged Had been stigmatized and frequently put in prison Dorothea Dix Argued for better treatment of mentally ill Wanted mentally ill to be treated medically not as prisoners

Women’s Rights Industrial Revolution allowed women to work and interact outside of home Women became active leaders in education and reform movements Seneca Falls Convention 1848 Led by Lucretia Mott and Elizabeth Cady Stanton Demanded equal rights and right to vote (suffrage)

Reform Movements Reform movements evolved from the religious fervor of the Second Great Awakening. Mental Institutions: Dorothea Dix led reform to create special asylums for the mentally ill. Temperance: The temperance movement grew from discouraging excessive alcohol use to promoting prohibition laws that made it illegal to buy or sell alcohol. Prison Reform: Prison reformers believed that criminals should be rehabilitated, not just punished. Education: Reformers believed that public education was needed to create an informed voting public. Mary Lyon founded the first institute of higher education for only women in 1837.
