Jane Addams:)
Jane Addams first visited Toynbee Hall, the world's first settlement house, which is located in the East End of London, in July, 1888. She had hoped to visit with her friend Ellen Gates Starr. Starr had agreed to help Addams co-found a settlement house in Chicago. In the spring of 1888 they were traveling together in Europe. But Starr was earning some of the money she needed to travel by chaperoning some students from the girls' school in Chicago where she was a teacher. In July she needed to be with the students in Italy. Addams planned to stay in London, however, and to visit Toynbee Hall again when Starr could join her, later in the summer. But that plan did not happen either. Addams's stepbrother, George Haldeman, was suffering from some sort of mental challenge. That summer, he wandered away from home and no one could find him. His mother -- Addams's stepmother -- was frantic, and Addams's sister Alice thought Addams should come back early from Europe because of the crisis. Addams departed London before Starr arrived.
Jane Addams established Hull House, a center for sociological research. She was a champion of the poor and disenfranchised and a leader in the Progressive Era. She won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1931, played a major part in establishing government safety and health standards and regulations, and helped to found important government programs, including Social Security, Workers' Compensation, and the Children's Bureau.
