Development of U.S. Settlement Model. Americans such as Jane Addams (1860-1935) and Lillian Wald (1867-1940) brought the settlement movement across the ocean by the early 1890s. Addams founded Hull-House in Chicago in 1889, and Wald opened the Henry Street Settlement in New York in 1895. But the American movement differed significantly from the English model. First, a large number of the U.S. settlement founders and residents were women, while in Great Britain the residents were mostly men. Given the greater opportunities for women in higher education in the United States, many of the settlement women had college degrees.
