Sorry, no homework questions. It says in our rules: Our users aren't here to do your homework for you, but they might be willing to help. Remember: AskHistorians helps those who help themselves. Don't just give us your essay/assignment topic and ask us for ideas. Do some research of your own, then come to us with questions about what you've learned. This is explained further in this [META] thread. You can also consider asking the helpful people at /r/HomeworkHelp.

Believe it or not, the SPCA. They actually help passed laws against animal cruelty that were used to pass child and vulnerable adults (such as mentally ill or developmentally disable) protection against abuse and neglect.
