Description

"Every Child is the story of four New England children's agencies. The history of these agencies established in 1809, 1859, 1906, and 1954 provide the reader with a window on the social forces underlying the creation of orphanages, settlement houses, child care centers, and children's mental health services in the United States. It is also the story of early American city life, and the everyday people who by their concern for others gave rise to children's services across the country."--Xlibris.com.
