Although we mark the founding of the Brown School in 1925, many steps occurred prior to that year in order to launch the school. The St. Louis Provident Association, founded in 1860 with the mission of 鈥渃orrective charity鈥�, began formal social work training in St. Louis in 1903 with the formation of the St. Louis School of Philanthropy, the fourth social work school in the country. 

In February 1907, the Provident Association inaugurated its formal training program for social workers, in collaboration with the University of Missouri.  Despite state budget cuts, the University of Missouri and Washington University in St. Louis鈥� (WashU) chancellors felt the necessity of the program鈥檚 mission and the program was moved into WashU鈥檚 St. Louis School of Social Economy. The school鈥檚 steady increase in students and esteem led to the creation of an official department of in 1913.  However, when WashU changed to a more conservative leadership, funding was cut from the program, which was discontinued, and, in 1916, the school moved to the University of Missouri to continue training social workers.  Continued discontent with the department, now called the Missouri School of Social Economy eventually led to the school being disbanded.  Advocacy from local social workers led to the training course being re-ignited at WashU.
