13 ноя 1889 г. - Jane Addams founds Hull House (Children's Bureau, 2012)

Описание:

Hull House is the most famous of more than 400 U.S. settlement houses established in poor urban areas during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Settlement houses provided neighborhood residents with critical social services that governments did not offer at the time, including health care, education, and temporary foster care. Many of the women volunteers, including Hull House founder Jane Addams, became influential advocates for social reforms such as child labor laws and protections for abused and neglected children. The Children’s Bureau’s first two Chiefs, Julia Lathrop and Grace Abbott, both were Hull House alumnae.
