Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pathfinder Social Survey of San Diego: Report of Limited Investigations of Social Conditions in San Diego, California The Settlement Committee of the College Woman's Club, early in the year, found accurate information about social conditions in San Diego difficult and, in some instances, impossible to obtain. It, therefore, recommended to the Club that a Social Survey be made. By vote of the Club, the Committee was directed to find a trained worker competent to make such a survey and was fortunate enough to secure Mr. and Mrs. Fred A. King, recommended both by Mr. Paul U. Kellogg, editor of "The Survey," and by Mr. Shelby M. Harrison, head of the Department of Surveys and Exhibits, Russell Sage Foundation. The substance of the Pathfinder Survey herewith reported has been obtained in about three weeks' time, and under rather unique circumstances. The work has been done upon a co-operative basis. The special committee, members of the College Woman's Club, and interested friends, have aided in gathering material, either by arranging interviews for Mr. and Mrs. King with leaders in social work, or by contributing to the discussion at general meetings held to consider particular topics, such as recreation or delinquency. In addition, in the report on housing conditions, club members and their friends covered certain districts in the city and secured general information as to rents, types of houses, and the like. This information would have been difficult to obtain in any other way in so short a time. Thanks are due all those who have given their services. Whatever value the report may have as a rapid review of the city's social resources and needs should be credited largely to such co-operation. Special thanks are due Miss Miriam A. Besley, who prepared the report on education; Mr. James L. Chapman, who furnished material for the statement as to civic improvement; Mr. R. E. Chadwick, who rendered a similar service in regard to taxation; the Y. M. C. A., which placed at the disposal of the Committee its survey of conditions concerning boys. Thanks are due also to the organizations, civic and social, which contributed financial aid to the publication of this survey. Further investigation of a thorough nature should be made along the lines indicated in the report, with a view to definite constructive effort on the part of the community toward social betterment.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Molly McClain tells the remarkable story of Ellen Browning Scripps (1836–1932), an American newspaperwoman, feminist, suffragist, abolitionist, and social reformer. She used her fortune to support women’s education, the labor movement, and public access to science, the arts, and education. Born in London, Scripps grew up in rural poverty on the Illinois prairie. She went from rags to riches, living out that cherished American story in which people pull themselves up by their bootstraps with audacity, hard work, and luck. She and her brother, E. W. Scripps, built America’s largest chain of newspapers, linking midwestern industrial cities with booming towns in the West. Less well known today than the papers started by Joseph Pulitzer and William Randolph Hearst, Scripps newspapers transformed their owners into millionaires almost overnight. By the 1920s Scripps was worth an estimated $30 million, most of which she gave away. She established the Scripps Institution of Oceanography in La Jolla, California, and appeared on the cover of Time magazine after founding Scripps College in Claremont, California. She also provided major financial support to organizations worldwide that promised to advance democratic principles and public education. In Ellen Browning Scripps, McClain brings to life an extraordinary woman who played a vital role in the history of women, California, and the American West.

Book excerpt: In Choosing to Care, Kyle E. Ciani examines the long history of interactions between parents and social reformers from diverse backgrounds in the development of social welfare programs, particularly childcare, in San Diego, California. Ciani explores how a variety of people—from destitute parents and tired guardians to benevolent advocates and professional social workers—connected over childcare concerns in a city that experienced tremendous demographic changes caused by urbanization, immigration, and the growth of a local U.S. military infrastructure from 1850 to 1950. Choosing to Care examines four significant areas where San Diego’s programs were distinct from, and contributed to, the national childcare agenda: the importance of the transnational U.S.–Mexico border relationship in creating effective childcare programs; the development of vocational education to curtail juvenile delinquency; the promotion of nursery school education; and the advancement of an emergency daycare program during the Great Depression and World War II. Ciani shows how children from families in unstable situations, especially children from Native American, Asian, Mexican-descent, African American, and impoverished Anglo families, challenged a social reform system that defined care as both social control and behavioral regulation. Choosing to Care incorporates a broader definition of childcare to include efforts by governmental and organizational bodies and persons to maintain and nurture the physical, mental, and social health and development of minors when parents and guardians cannot do so. It offers a more complex understanding of how multiple avenues and resources established social welfare in San Diego and other West Coast cities.
