Have you ever heard of Jane Addam’s Hull House in Chicago? Jane Addams was a woman that played many roles. She opened up a facility for new immigrants to come and stay until they could learn the English language and get a job. Hull House provided schools for the children of immigrants to help them learn English as well. She helped immigrants adapt to their new environment.
