The correct answer is B) progressive reforms.

In the late 1800s, organized efforts to improve prison conditions and education for the disabled and disadvantaged were referred to as progressive reforms.

From the 1890s to the 1920s, the United States lived an interesting period of social activism that resulted in political reforms called "progressive reforms." This Progressive movement focused on resolving problems caused by the industrialization such as political corruption in government and companies, immigration, and uncontrolled urbanization. It tried to eliminate or at least limit, the influence of political machines and their personal agendas in politics.
