The national Woman's Christian Temperance Union (WCTU) also officially began in Cleveland in 1874. WOMEN had participated in activities such as the Martha Washington & Dorcas Society and in auxiliaries to other temperance organizations. In 1850 a Ladies Temperance Union had been established in Cleveland. Tactics of these groups reflected the 19th-century belief in woman's natural piety and morality, encouraging women to join reform efforts designed to improve male behavior, but limiting them to moral suasion or other socially accepted strategies.
