Settlement houses were started by Jane Addams in Chicago and the movement spread to other urban areas in the US. The goal was to provide services to new immigrants to the US.


Hull House in Chicago was the model for settlement houses. The series of buildings sat in the middle of ethic neighborhoods in Chicago. The settlements houses provided language lessons, job placements, meals, and a place to stay if needed.
