Antebellum Reform Movements (Group F) From the 1820s-1840s, the Whig evangelicals believed that with Godâs help they could improve the world by improving the individuals within it, and they felt they could use the government to improve individual morality and discipline. During this antebellum period, many social reforms were taken to improve the lives of individuals. Reforms that took place included reforming public schools, prisons, and asylums. In the 19th century, public schools were known as âcommonâ schools, schools that local and state governments built that were supported by taxes.
