Female Moral Reform Society

The Female Moral Reform Society, founded in the 1830s in the United States, was a women's organization aimed at combating the social issues of immorality and sexual exploitation, particularly concerning women and girls. Promoting moral standards, the society sought to protect women from prostitution and support their rights. It emphasized the importance of women’s virtue and moral integrity in society, advocating for reforms in laws and social practices. The organization played a significant role in the early feminist movement, highlighting women's roles as moral guardians and addressing issues of gender inequality during a time of significant social change.
