Administrative records, printed materials, and historical data on the
development of the Women's Cooperative Alliance, incorporated in 1918 and
dissolved in 1932. The organization was created to disseminate information
about sex education, to promote the eradication of juvenile delinquency, and
to advance social hygiene and public morality.
The group began in 1915 as the Women's Cooperative Committee, an organization
sponsored by the Women's Welfare League. It was named the Women's
Cooperative Alliance in 1917, and was incorporated under that name in 1918.
The work of the Alliance developed through four departments: Administration,
Education and Publicity, Research and Investigation, and Big Sisters.

weekly change of program of sound-on-film motion pictures suitable for
these purposes, by encouraging, promoting and participating in their
production and distribution of apparatus and equipment for their
exhibition; and to make such motion pictures available to the public
