Influenced by the Second Great Awakening
- Mental Health Reform — Yes. Evangelical concern for individual moral improvement spurred activists (e.g., Dorothea Dix) to push for humane treatment and asylums.
- Temperance Movement — Yes. Revivalist emphasis on personal morality led to large temperance campaigns against alcohol.
- Women's Rights Movement — Yes. Women’s involvement in revivalism and reform networks helped spark the women’s rights movement (e.g., Seneca Falls grew out of abolition/temperance activism).
- Education Reform — Yes. The reform impulse and belief in moral improvement supported public schooling reforms (Horace Mann and common schools).
- Prison Reform — Yes. Reformers motivated by Christian humanitarianism sought more humane prisons and rehabilitation.
Not (in the usual sense)
- Civil Rights Movement — No. The 20th-century Civil Rights Movement was not a 19th‑century reform driven by the Second Great Awakening. (The Awakening did help fuel 19th‑century abolitionism and early racial-equality efforts, but “Civil Rights Movement” commonly refers to the mid-1900s.)
