The Female Moral Reform Society was a 19th century organization of women that worked to combat prostitution and reclaim women from sex work. They believed that men had a responsibility to lead moral lives and were instrumental in raising awareness about the negative effects of prostitution and advocating for legislation to curb the industry. While they may have had other social justice goals, such as improving the lives of domestic servants or promoting literacy among women, their primary focus was on moral reform related to prostitution.
