In 1889, Jane Addams, a social reformer in Chicago, Illinois, founded a settlement house called Hull House, which provided child care, kindergarten, libraries, playgrounds, vocational and domestic training, and food services to poor city residents. It also sent visiting nurses to help care for the sick in Chicago's crowded neighborhoods.
At Hull House, young mothers practiced ways to care for their children--including the daily infant bath, which is illustrated in the photograph above. English-language classes, civic rights classes, and art classes were also offered. The settlement houses provided important services to the poor at a time when government and many churches did not provide them.
Many of the people who worked at the settlement houses also worked to outlaw sweatshop working conditions, to promote organized labor, and to secure workers' compensation laws.

In a representative democracy, citizens can use initiative, referendum, and recall to bring about political change.An initiative is the process by which voters may place a proposed bill on the ballot for popular approval.A referendum is a bill passed by the legislature placed on a ballot for the entire electorate to approve or reject.An example would be a proposal requiring a deposit to be paid on all glass beverage containers sold within a state.A referendum may also bring up for reconsideration by the electorate an existing law that may not be working as desired.A recall is a device by which a properly elected official can be removed from office by a majority vote of the electorate.
If initiative, referendum, and recall were abolished, which outcome would most harm a democracy?
