The Milwaukee-area chapters of the Woman's Christian Temperance Union (WCTU) included the Milwaukee County Union, and First Milwaukee, Anna Gordon, Lathrop, Lillian Stevens, and Willard chapters; later, the Alice LeFeber (formerly West Allis) chapter was added. All of the chapters were affiliated with the Wisconsin Union of the WCTU. The date of establishment is known only of the Lillian Stevens chapter, November 6, 1914. The work of the chapters included temperance and allied social reform activities, and was carried on through monthly meetings; programs, speakers, and county conventions dealing with alcohol and narcotics; and community and school education work.
