Description

The Chicago Federation of Settlements was founded at Hull-House in 1894. The Federation named six directors, all prominent members of the Settlement Movement: Jane Addams, Harriet E. Vittum, Ruth Austin, Lea D. Taylor, Mrs. Beryl T. Gould, and Winifred Salisbury. The Federation disbanded in the 1980s, although some settlements still operate as independent organizations.
