Determined efforts to regulate or eliminate child labor have been a feature of social reform in the United States since 1900. The leaders in this effort were the National Child Labor Committee, organized in 1904, and the many state child labor committees.
Even up until the 1900âs one in six children, ranging in ages 10 to 15, were sent to work outside of the home. The state of Massachusetts passed the first child labor law in 1823. The law prohibited children who were under the age of 15 from working in factories (Linehan, 2010). During the mid-1800âs education reformers began to persuade Americans about the importance of education as a means of both personal fulfillment and societal advancement.
