Jan e Addams — M other of Social W ork
Growing up as the eighth of nine children in rural 1860’s Cedarville, 
IL, Jane Addams described herself as an “ugly, pigeon-toed little girl” with 
a crooked back. Surgery eventually corrected her congenial spinal defect, 
but not before Jane identified herself with the misfits and victims of 
society.
The “horrid little houses” in the slums nearby Freeport shocked her 
and got her wondering about what could be done to improve them. She
was six years old at that time.
Jane was blessed with a father whom she adored and who impressed 
her with his virtues o f tolerance, philanthropy and his strong work ethic.

He was a man o f influence himself, an owner o f grain mills, officer
in the Civil War, State Senator for 16 years and personal friend o f President
Abraham Lincoln, also from Illinois. John Addams encouraged his
daughter to pursue an education. Her schooling emphasized social
responsibility and passion for culture and good works. For a while, she set
her sights on becoming a doctor and stayed at the school for another six 
years.
After school Jane and a friend from college, Ellen Starr were touring 
Europe and Britain when she visited
London’s East End and Toynbee Hall. Toynbee Hall was a 
«settlement house», ministering to the needs o f London’s poor. They 
decided to bring the concept to America, and found a decayed mansion on 
Chicago’s Halstead Street originally built Щ 1; merchant named Charles
Hull. Hull house opened its doors for all those who cared to enter on 
September 18, 1889. So great was the need for basic social service that 
2,000 people a day asked and received help. The old mansion grew to 
include many firsts for Chicago, including a playground, gymnasium, 
citizenship preparation classes, public baths and a swimming pool. It led to 
the enactment o f the first factory in Illinois, the first tenement code and 
was the birthplace o f four labour unions. Hull house became a national 
historic landmark in June o f 1967. Jane Addams made her childhood dream 
of improving living conditions for the poor come true. She didn’t make it to 
Oslo for the Nobel Prize, though, as her health had begun to fail by 1931. 
When she passed away on May 21, 1935, a train carried her from the 
funeral services at Hull House to rest in Cedarville, the place where she 
grew up and began her life’s passion o f service. So great has been the 
lasting effect o f her works that Jane Addams has been described as one of 
social work’s «founding mothers». 
(Adaptedfrom Shepler, J. (1999)).
Fill in the sentences with the correct word (s) from the text.

Creating a timeline when reading helps you to understand the order 
o f events in the text. Some texts present a series o f events in chronological
36


order. If you record these events on a timeline, it will help you to 
understand and remember the order o f these events.
W hat do you know about the history of social work in our 
country ? Find information about the main steps in the development of 
social work in Russia and be ready to share it with your group.
The m anager of the company you work for has asked employees 
to give their opinions on the role of social work in modern Russian 
society. W rite an article for a newspaper. Before you start writing, be 
sure you know the main features of a newspaper article (see below 
Language Learning Strategies section).
Articles are pieces o f writing which appear in newspapers or 
magazines aiming to make a topic interesting to readers. They can be 
formal or informal in style depending on the type of publication and the 
topic o f the article itself.
A good article should consist of: •
an eye-catching headline which gives the reader an idea of what 
the article is about. Headlines are normally brief and are written in the 
same style (i.e. formal or informal) as the article itself.
- an interesting introduction.
*
• a main body consisting o f two or more paragraphs where details on
the topic are given.
• a conclusion which gives an appropriate ending to the article.
