Excerpt from The Woman Citizen's Library: A Systematic Course of Reading in Preparation for the Larger Citizenship
Perhaps I could illustrate this with the Juvenile Court in Chicago. That was a growth to which a great many people in Chicago contributed. I remember many years ago at Hull House one of our residents went every morning to the nearest police station, and the justice in charge of the station, who was a very kind-hearted man, turned over to her all of the boys and girls who had been brought there for their first offenses. It was really a probation system. He paroled these boys and girls to Mrs. Stevens, who died some years ago when she was still helping children in all sorts of ways.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the political and social landscape of the early 20th century, showcasing how women's roles were expanding beyond traditional boundaries. The author highlights the gradual shift from philanthropy to government involvement in addressing social issues, such as child welfare and labor reform. Exploring the interplay between private and public initiatives, the book examines how women's activism led to the establishment of public services that catered to the well-being of citizens. It emphasizes the growing realization that issues once considered private responsibilitiesâ"like healthcare and educationâ"were fundamental to the progress and prosperity of society as a whole. By tracing the evolution of various public services, this book sheds light on the changing dynamics between government and civil society. It argues that women's contributions were instrumental in shaping the modern understanding of the role of government in promoting social welfare.
