Hi! Today I wan to talk about Jane Addams. She born in Cedarville, Illinois in 1860 into a wealthy family. She was a feminist social worker, cofounder of Hull House with Ellen Gates Starr and Nobel Peace Prize winner. Jane was a important leader in the history of social work and the suffragatte movement. Jane established Hull House in a poor neighborhood of Chicago. The settlement home provided the poor and working class with much-needed social services, such as child care and improved sanitation. Jane Addams's proposals at the beginning of the 20th century not only mark the first steps of Social Work in the world but in other areas, as it contains dimensions progressive, transgressive and extremely critical of the social scenario of the time. It is because of all her work and contributions that I admire her and value her work so much. Being a woman in her time was not easy and yet she did incredible things and left us a great legacy.
